    Consider the following statements A and B. Identify the correct choice in the given answers A. In a one dimensional perfectly elastic collision between two moving bodies of equal masses the bodies merely exchange their velocities after collision. B. If a lighter body at rest suffers perfectly elastic collision with a very heavy body moving with a certain velocity, then after collision both travel with same velocity.

    Consider the following statements A and B identify the correct choice in the give answers. a. n a one -dimensional perfectly elastic collision between two moving bodies of equal masses, the bodies merely exhange their velocities after collision. b.If a lighter body at rest suffers perfectly elastic collision with a very heavy body moving with a certain velocity, after collision both travel with same velocity.

    Assertion: To floats, a body must displace liquid whose weight is greater than actual weight of the body. Reason: The body will experience no net downward force in that case.
