A mass $M$ moving with a certain speed $V$ collides elastically with another stationary mass $m$. After the collision, the masses $M$ and $m$ move with speeds $V^{\prime}$ and $v$, respectively. All motion is in one dimension. Then,

  • [KVPY 2019]
  • A

    $V=V^{\prime}+v$

  • B

    $V^{\prime}=V+v$

  • C

    $V^{\prime}=\frac{(V+v)}{2}$

  • D

    $v=V+V^{\prime}$
