Four smooth steel balls of equal mass at rest are free to move along a straight line without friction. The first ball is given a velocity of $0.4 \,m/s$. It collides head on with the second elastically, the second one similarly with the third and so on. The velocity of the last ball is .......... $m/s$
$0.4$
$0.2$
$0.1$
$0.05$

In head on elastic collision velocity get interchanged (if masses of particle are equal). i.e. the last ball will move with the velocity of first ball i.e $0.4 \,m/s$
