Two particles of masses `m_(1),m_(2)` move with initial velocities `u_(1)` and `u_(2)`. On collision, one of the particles get excited to higher level, after absording enegry. If final velocities of particles be `v_(1)` and `v_(2)` then we must have

A

`m_(1)^(2)u_(1)+m_(2)^(2)u_(2)^(2)-epsi=m_(1)^(2)v_(1)+m_(2)^(2)v_(2)`

B

`1/2m_(1)u_(1)^(2)+1/2m_(2)u_(2)^(2)=1/2m_(1)v_(1)^(2)+1/2m_(2)v_(2)-epsi`

C

`1/2m_(1)u_(1)^(2)+1/2m_(2)u_(2)^(2)-epsi=1/2m_(1)v_(1)^(2)+1/2m_(2)v_(2)`

D

`1/2m_(1)u_(1)^(2)+1/2m_(2)u_(2)^(2)+epsi=1/2m_(1)v_(1)^(2)+1/2m_(2)v_(2)`

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the situation using the principles of conservation of energy and the concept of kinetic energy. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Initial Kinetic Energy:** The initial kinetic energy (KE_initial) of the two particles before the collision can be expressed as: \[ KE_{\text{initial}} = \frac{1}{2} m_1 u_1^2 + \frac{1}{2} m_2 u_2^2 \] 2. **Identify the Final Kinetic Energy:** After the collision, the final kinetic energy (KE_final) of the two particles can be expressed as: \[ KE_{\text{final}} = \frac{1}{2} m_1 v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2} m_2 v_2^2 \] 3. **Energy Absorbed by the Excited Particle:** Let \( E \) be the energy absorbed by one of the particles during the collision that causes it to get excited to a higher energy level. According to the conservation of energy, the initial kinetic energy is equal to the final kinetic energy plus the energy absorbed: \[ KE_{\text{initial}} = KE_{\text{final}} + E \] 4. **Set Up the Equation:** Substituting the expressions for initial and final kinetic energy into the equation gives us: \[ \frac{1}{2} m_1 u_1^2 + \frac{1}{2} m_2 u_2^2 = \frac{1}{2} m_1 v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2} m_2 v_2^2 + E \] 5. **Rearranging the Equation:** Rearranging the equation to isolate the energy \( E \) yields: \[ E = \left( \frac{1}{2} m_1 u_1^2 + \frac{1}{2} m_2 u_2^2 \right) - \left( \frac{1}{2} m_1 v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2} m_2 v_2^2 \right) \] 6. **Final Expression:** Thus, we can conclude that the energy absorbed during the collision, which causes one of the particles to become excited, can be expressed as: \[ E = \frac{1}{2} m_1 (u_1^2 - v_1^2) + \frac{1}{2} m_2 (u_2^2 - v_2^2) \]
