$A$ mass $m$ moves with a velocity $v$ and collides inelastically with another identical mass at rest. After the collision,the $1^{st}$ mass moves with velocity $\frac{v}{\sqrt{3}}$ in a direction perpendicular to the initial direction of motion. Find the speed of the $2^{nd}$ mass after the collision.

  • A
    $\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}v$
  • B
    $\frac{v}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • C
    $v$
  • D
    $\sqrt{3}v$

$A$ 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 is dropped from a height $h$. If the coefficient of restitution is $e$,to what height will it rise after jumping twice from the ground?

$A$ ball kept at $20 \,m$ height falls freely in a downward direction vertically and hits the ground. The coefficient of restitution is $0.4$. After the first rebound, the upward velocity is $[g = 10 \,m/s^2]$. (in $\,m/s$)
