Question

Two small particles of equal masses start moving in opposite directions from a point A in a horizontal circular orbit. Their tangential velocities are v blank a n d blank 2 v respectively, as shown in the figure. Between collisions, the particles move with constant speeds. After making how many elastic collisions, other than that at A blank,these two particles will again reach The point A ?

  1. 4    
  2. 3    
  3. 2    
  4. 1    

The correct answer is: 2


    A s first collision one particle having speed 2v will rotate
    240 degree open parentheses o r fraction numerator 4 pi over denominator 3 end fraction close parentheseswhile other particle having speed v blankwill rotate
    120 degree open parentheses o r fraction numerator 2 pi over denominator 3 end fraction close parentheses. At first collision they will exchange their velocities. Now as shown in figure, after two collisions they will again reach at point A.
