Two identical balls A and B are moving with velocity +0.5 ms-1 and -0.3 ms-1 respectively. If they collide head on elastically, then their velocities after collision will be:

1. -0.3 ms-1 and 0.5 ms-1

2. +0.5 ms-1 and + 0.3 ms-1

3. -0.4 ms-1 and 0.3 ms-1

4. -0.3 ms-1 and -0.4 ms-1

A particle projected with velocity 'u' makes an angle θ with respect to horizontal. Now it breaks in two identical parts at highest point of trajectory. If one part retraces its path, then velocity of the other part is:
1. 3u cos θ
2. 2u cos θ
3. u cos θ
4. u
