$A$ block having mass $m$ collides with another stationary block having mass $2m$. The lighter block comes to rest after the collision. If the initial velocity of the first block is $v$,then the value of the coefficient of restitution must be:

$A$ smooth sphere $A$ is moving on a frictionless horizontal plane with angular speed $\omega$ and center of mass with velocity $v$. It collides elastically and head-on with an identical sphere $B$ at rest. Neglect friction everywhere. After the collision,their angular speeds are $\omega_A$ and $\omega_B$ respectively. Then

$A$ heavy body moving with a velocity of $6\,ms^{-1}$ collides elastically with a light body (whose mass is half of the mass of the heavy body) at rest. The velocity of the light body will be (in $ms^{-1}$):

Collision takes place between two solid spheres denoted as $1$ and $2$. The initial velocities of the spheres are $u_1 = 3 \ m/s$ and $u_2 = 1.5 \ m/s$,and the final velocities are $v_1 = 2.5 \ m/s$ and $v_2 = 3.5 \ m/s$. The coefficient of restitution between the materials of the spheres is nearly:
