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:

  • A
    $0.67$
  • B
    $0.78$
  • C
    $0.83$
  • D
    $0.96$

There is a head-on elastic collision between two particles moving in the same direction with speeds $5 \,m/s$ and $3 \,m/s$ respectively. After the collision,the velocity of the first particle becomes $4 \,m/s$ in the same direction. What is the velocity of the second particle?

$A$ ball of mass $m$ moving with velocity $V$ makes a head-on elastic collision with a ball of the same mass moving with velocity $2V$ towards it. Taking the direction of $V$ as positive,the velocities of the two balls after the collision are:

$A$ block $A$ of mass $M$ moving with speed $u$ collides elastically with block $B$ of mass $m$ which is connected to block $C$ of mass $m$ with a spring. When the compression in the spring is maximum,the velocity of block $C$ with respect to block $A$ is (neglect friction):
