A body of mass m having an initial velocity $v$, makes head on collision with a stationary body of mass $M$. After the collision, the body of mass $m$ comes to rest and only the body having mass $M$ moves. This will happen only when

An object of mass $M$ is at rest on smooth horizontal surface. Objects of different masses collide head on elastically to the object of mass $M$ . All colliding objects are having fixed same kinetic energy and in each case mass $M$ is supposed to be at rest initially. In this experiment the kinetic energy transferred to stationary mass $(M)$ depend on linear momentum of incoming colliding mass then energy transferred to $M$ in a collision is
