Question No : 18
Pick up the correct statement from the following:

If two equal and perfectly elastic smooth spheres impinge directly, they interchange their velocities
If a sphere impinges directly on an equal sphere which is at rest, then a fraction ½(1 - e2) the original kinetic energy is lost by the impact
If two equal spheres which are perfectly elastic impinge at right angles, their direction after impact will still be at right angles
All the above
