Which one of the following statements does not hold good when two balls of masses $m _1$ and $m _2$ undergo elastic collision

  • A

    When $m_1 < m_2$ and $m_2$ at rest, there will be maximum transfer of momentum.

  • B

    When $m _1 > m _2$ and $m _2$ at rest, after collision the ball of mass $m_2$ moves with four times the velocity of $m_1$.

  • C

    When $m_1=m_2$ and $m_2$ at rest, there will be maximum transfer of $K. E$

  • D

     When collision is oblique and $m _2$ at rest with $m_1=m_2$ after collision the ball moves in opposite directions.
