When the two bodies of equal mass collide head on elastically, their velocities are mutually exchanged.

(ii) If m1 = m2 and u2 = 0 then

v1 = -u1 and v2 = 0

PLS EXPLAIN THIS ( WHEN A BODY COLLIDES WITTH A BODY OF SAME MASS AT REST......THEN THE 1st BODY must STOP and 2nd BODY MUST MOVE WITH A VELOCITY OF THE PREVIOUS BODY)

CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG!!! PLS
