    A body of mass 2 kg moving with a velocity of 6 m/s strikes in elastically another body of same mass at rest. The amount of heat evolved is

    A)  36 J                       

    B) 18 J  

    C) 9 J                                          

    D)  3 J

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Common velocity \[=\frac{{{m}_{1}}{{v}_{1}}+{{m}_{2}}{{v}_{2}}}{{{m}_{1}}+{{m}_{2}}}\] \[=\frac{2\times 6+2\times 0}{2+2}\]\[=3m\text{/}s\] Initial kinetic energy \[=\frac{1}{2}{{m}_{1}}v_{1}^{2}+\frac{1}{2}{{m}_{2}}v_{2}^{2}\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times {{(6)}^{2}}\]             = 36 J Final kinetic energy\[=\frac{1}{2}({{m}_{1}}+{{m}_{2}}){{v}^{2}}\] \[=\frac{1}{2}(2+2){{(3)}^{2}}=18J\] The amount of heat evolved \[={{E}_{1}}-{{E}_{2}}\] = 36 ? 18 = 18J
