Two spheres A and B of masses m 1 and m 2 respectively collide. A is at rest initially and B is moving with velocity v along x-axis. After collision B has a velocity 
in a direction perpendicular to the original direction. The mass A moves after collision in the direction.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
m 2 m 1
→ v 
u = 0
conservation of linear momentum along x direction x
m 2 v = m 1 v x
= v x
along y direction
m 2 × 
= m 1 v y
tan θ =
