$A$ sphere of mass $m$ travelling at constant speed $v$ strikes another sphere of the same mass. If the coefficient of restitution is $e$,then the ratio of the velocities of both spheres just after the collision is:

  • A
    $\frac{1-e}{1+e}$
  • B
    $\frac{1+e}{1-e}$
  • C
    $\frac{e+1}{e-1}$
  • D
    $\frac{e-1}{e+1}$
