A metal ball of mass
moving with a velocity of
has a head on collision with a stationary ball of mass
. After the collision, if both balls move together, then the loss in kinetic energy due to collision is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
After collision, the two balls will stick together and their combined velocity be
Now, by using law of conservation of momentum,
