In a collinear collision, a particle with an initial speed v 0 strikes a stationary particle of the same mass. If the final total kinetic energy is 50% greater than the original kinetic energy, the magnitude of the relative velocity between the two particles, after collision, is :
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
By conservation of linear momentum

v 0 = v 1 + v 2 ………(1)

………(2)
Solving equation (1) and (2)




= 
=
