Question
Six identical balls are linked in a straight groove made on a horizontal frictionless surface as shown. Two similar balls each moving with a velocity
collide elastically with the row of 6 balls from left. What will happen

- One ball from the right rolls out with a speed
and the remaining balls will remain at rest
- Two balls from the right roll out with speed
each and the remaining balls will remain stationary
- All the six balls in the row will roll out with speed
each and the two colliding balls will come to rest
- The colliding balls will come to rest and no ball rolls out from right
The correct answer is: Two balls from the right roll out with speed
each and the remaining balls will remain stationary
Momentum and kinetic energy is conserved only in this case
