    STATEMENT-1 : In an elastic collision between two bodies, the relative velocity of separation equals relative velocity of approach. and STATEMENT-2 : In a elastic collision , the coefficient of restitution is 1 .

    These questions consists of two statements each printed as Assertion and Reason. While answering these question you are required to choose any one of the following five responses. Reason: For inelastic collision, 0leelt1 . Hence, the magnitude of relative velocity of separation after collision is less than relative velocity of approach before collision.
