An unknown nucleus of mass $m_1$ collides with a stationary ${}^4He$ nucleus of mass $m_2$. After the collision,the two nuclei travel in perpendicular directions relative to each other. If kinetic energy is lost in the collision,the unknown nucleus must be:

$A$ small steel ball bounces on a steel plate held horizontally. On each bounce, the speed of the ball arriving at the plate is reduced by a factor $e$ (coefficient of restitution) in the rebound, so that $V_{\text{upward}} = e V_{\text{downward}}$. If the ball is initially dropped from a height of $0.4 \text{ m}$ above the plate and if $10 \text{ s}$ later the bouncing ceases, the value of $e$ is:

Two pendulums with identical bobs and lengths are suspended from a common support such that in rest position the two bobs are in contact (figure). One of the bobs is released after being displaced by $10^{\circ}$ so that it collides elastically head-on with the other bob.

$(b)$ Draw a graph showing variation in energy of either pendulum with time,for $0 \leqslant t \leqslant 2T$,where $T$ is the period of each pendulum.
