    An object of mass 2.0 kg makes an elastic collision with another object of mass M at rest and continues to move in the original direction but with one-fourth of its original speed. What is the value of M?

    A) 0.75kg 

    B) 1.0kg

    C) 1.2kg

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] For the object of mass 2.0 kg. \[\frac{\Delta \operatorname{k}}{\operatorname{k}}=\frac{k-k/4}{k}=\frac{3}{4}\] Kinetic energy transferred \[\frac{\Delta \operatorname{k}}{\operatorname{k}}=\frac{4{{m}_{1}}{{m}_{2}}}{{{\left( {{\operatorname{m}}_{1}}+{{m}_{2}} \right)}^{2}}}\] Here, \[{{\operatorname{m}}_{1}} = 2.0 kg, {{m}_{2}}= M\] \[\therefore \frac{3}{4}=\frac{4\times 2\operatorname{M}}{{{\left( 2+\operatorname{M} \right)}^{2}}}\Rightarrow \operatorname{M}=\frac{2}{3}kg\,\,or\,\,6kg\]
