$A$ 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
    $0.5$
  • B
    $0.4$
  • C
    $0.6$
  • D
    $0.8$

What is a head-on collision?

$A$ perfectly rigid billiard ball of kinetic energy $E_k$ collides with an identical stationary ball. After the collision,the kinetic energy of the first ball becomes $E'_k$. Then,which of the following is true?

$Assertion$ : If collision occurs between two elastic bodies,their kinetic energy decreases during the time of collision.
$Reason$ : During collision,intermolecular space decreases and hence elastic potential energy increases.

$A$ ball of $0.4 \, kg$ mass and a speed of $3 \, m/s$ has a head-on,completely elastic collision with a $0.6 \, kg$ mass initially at rest. Find the speeds of both balls after the collision:

$A$ billiard table has length and width as shown in the figure. $A$ ball is placed at point $A$. At what angle $\theta$ should the ball be projected so that after colliding with two walls,the ball will fall into the pocket $B$? Assume that all collisions are perfectly elastic and neglect friction.
