A body of mass $2\, kg$ moving with a velocity of $3\, m/sec$ collides head on with a body of mass $1\, kg$ moving in opposite direction with a velocity of $4\, m/sec$. After collision, two bodies stick together and move with a common velocity which in $m/sec$ is equal to

A body of mass $m$ is moving in a circle of radius $r$ with a constant speed $v$. The force on the body is $\frac{{m{v^2}}}{r}$ and is directed towards the centre. What is the work done by this force in moving the body over half the circumference of the circle

Answer carefully, with reasons :

$(a)$ In an elastic collision of two billiard balls, is the total kinetic energy conserved during the short time of collision of the balls (i.e. when they are in contact) ?

$(b)$ Is the total linear momentum conserved during the short time of an elastic collision of two balls ?

$(c)$ What are the answers to $(a)$ and $(b)$ for an inelastic collision ?

$(d)$ If the potential energy of two billiard balls depends only on the separation distance between their centres, is the collision elastic or inelastic ?

(Note, we are talking here of potential energy corresponding to the force during collision, not gravitational potential energy).
