    Two particles A and B of equal mass M are moving with the same speed \[\upsilon \] as shown in the figure. They collide completely in elastically and move as a single particle C. The angle \[\theta \] that the path of C makes with the X-axis is given by - [JEE Online 09-04-2017]

    A)  \[\tan \theta \,=\frac{\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2}}{1-\sqrt{2}}\]    

    B)  \[\tan \theta \,=\frac{1-\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}(1+\sqrt{3})}\]

    C)  \[\tan \theta \,\frac{1-\sqrt{3}}{1+\sqrt{2}}\]                   

    D)  \[\tan \theta \,=\frac{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}}{1-\sqrt{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    \[2mv'\,\sin \theta \,=\frac{mv}{\sqrt{2}}+\frac{mv\sqrt{3}}{2}\]                 \[3\,mv'\,\cos \theta \,=\frac{mv}{2}\,-\frac{mv}{\sqrt{2}}\] \[\sin \theta \,\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\,+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}\] \[=\frac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}}{1-\sqrt{2}}\]
