The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
In physics, collision does not means that one particle strike another particle. Infect, two particles may not even touch each other & may still said to be colliding.
The necessary requirements of collision are
(i) A large force for a relatively short time (i.e., an impulse) acts on each colliding particle.
(ii) The motion of the particles (at least one of the particle) is changed abruptly.
(iii) The total momentum (as also the total energy) of particles remains conserved.

Concepts Used:
Momentum
It can be defined as "mass in motion." All objects have mass; so if an object is moving, then it is called as momentum.
the momentum of an object is the product of mass of the object and the velocity of the object.
Momentum = mass • velocity
The above equation can be rewritten as
p = m • v
where m is the mass and v is the velocity.
Momentum is a vector quantity and the direction of the of the vector is the same as the direction that an object.
