body A comes to the rest as this criteria can only conserve the momentum .. keep one thing in mind velocities get exchanged when there is a perfect elastic collision that to the masses have to be same

Answer:

Body A comes to rest.

Explanation:

If two objects collide and one of them was at rest and have the same mass, what will happen is that the one that was at rest will absorbe the kinetic energy of the system, and start moving with the same initial velocity of Body A.
