NEET Physics Angular Momentum MCQ Question
If two billiard balls of equal masses undergo an elastic collision and the initial velocity of the cue ball is 3 m/s while the target ball is initially at rest, what will be the final velocity of the target ball?
3 m/s
5 m/s
0 m/s
6 m/s
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
For an elastic collision between two equal mass objects where one is initially at rest, the moving object transfers its velocity to the stationary object. Thus, the target ball will have a final velocity of 3 m/s.
