The elastic collision between two bodies A and B can be considered using the following model A and B are free to move along a common line without friction When their distance is greater than 1 m the interacting force is zero when their distance is less than d a constant repulsive force F N is present The mass of body A is mA 1 kg and it is initially at rest the mass of body B is m 3kg and it is approaching body A head on with a speed vo 2m s A B A The minimum distance between the two is 0 75m B Time taken to get minimum approach is 2sec C Velocity of m never becomes zero D Final velocity of ma is 3m s in leftwards
