Statement-1 : In a head on elastic collision between a moving body `A` with an initally stationary body `B`, the kinetic energy lost by `A` is equal to the kinetic energy gained by `B` till the instant of maximum deformation during their contact.
Statement-2 : The total kinetic energy of system before and after collision is same in elastic collision.
