A particle of mass m moving with a speed v hits elastically another stationary particle of mass 2m on a smooth horizontal circular tube of radius r. The time in which the next collision will take place is equal to

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Relative velocity of separation
=relative velocity of approach = v
`therefore` Time of next collision = `(2pi r)/(v)`
