Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.

Assertion A : Body P having mass M moving with speed u has head-on collision elastically with another body Q having mass m initially at rest. If mM, body Q will have a maximum speed equal to 2u after collision.

Reason R : During elastic collision, the momentum and kinetic energy are both conserved.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
