. During head on elastic collision, two bodies of masses m_(1) and m_(2) completely exchange their velocities when

Consider the following statements A and B and identify the correct answer A. In an elastic collision, if a body suffers a head on collision with another of same mass at rest, the first body comes to rest while the other starts moving with the velocity of the first one B. Two bodies of equal mass suffering a head on elastic collision merely exchanges their velocities
