$A$ ball makes a head-on collision with another ball of twice its mass,which is initially at rest,with a velocity of $1.5 \ m/s$. If the coefficient of restitution is $0.6$,what will be their velocities after the collision?

  • A
    $-0.1 \ m/s$ and $0.8 \ m/s$
  • B
    $0.8 \ m/s$ and $0.1 \ m/s$
  • C
    $0.1 \ m/s$ and $8 \ m/s$
  • D
    $8 \ m/s$ and $0.1 \ m/s$

$A$ $2 \,kg$ ball moving at $24 \,ms^{-1}$ undergoes inelastic head-on collision with a $4 \,kg$ ball moving in the opposite direction at $48 \,ms^{-1}$. If the coefficient of restitution is $2/3$, their velocities in $ms^{-1}$ after impact are

$A$ smooth sphere is moving on a horizontal surface with a velocity vector $(2 \hat{i} + 2 \hat{j}) \ m/s$ immediately before it hits a vertical wall. The wall is parallel to the vector $\hat{j}$ and the coefficient of restitution between the sphere and the wall is $e = 1/2$. The velocity of the sphere after it hits the wall is:

$A$ ball hits the floor and rebounds after an inelastic collision. In this case:

$A$ ball $P$ moving with a speed of $v \ ms^{-1}$ collides directly with another identical ball $Q$ moving with a speed $10 \ ms^{-1}$ in the opposite direction. $P$ comes to rest after the collision. If the coefficient of restitution is $0.6$,the value of $v$ is (in $ms^{-1}$)

Two identical balls $P$ and $Q$ moving in the $x-y$ plane collide at the origin $(x=0, y=0)$ of the coordinate system. Their velocity components just before the moment of impact were,for ball $P$,$v_x = 6 \ m/s, v_y = 0$; for ball $Q$,$v_x = -5 \ m/s, v_y = 2 \ m/s$. As a result of the collision,ball $P$ comes to rest. The velocity components of ball $Q$ just after the collision will be:
