$A$ block $A$ of mass $M$ moving with speed $u$ collides elastically with block $B$ of mass $m$ which is connected to block $C$ of mass $m$ with a spring. When the compression in the spring is maximum,the velocity of block $C$ with respect to block $A$ is (neglect friction):

The rebound coefficient between a tennis ball and a racket is defined as $e = v_2/v_1$,where $v_1$ is the incoming speed of the ball and $v_2$ is the speed of the ball after rebound while the racket is at rest. $A$ tennis ball falls from height $H$ to a racket at rest and bounces back to $0.8 H$. $A$ tennis player is using the racket to hit an incoming tennis ball traveling at $150 \ km/hr$ and the racket is moving at $100 \ km/hr$ towards the ball. What is the speed of the ball after being hit? (Assume the mass of the racket $\gg$ that of the ball).

When does the maximum energy transfer occur during an elastic collision?

Two small particles of equal masses start moving in opposite directions from a point $A$ in a horizontal circular orbit. Their tangential velocities are $v$ and $2v$,respectively,as shown in the figure. Between collisions,the particles move with constant speeds. After making how many elastic collisions,other than that at $A$,will these two particles again reach the point $A$?

$A$ sphere of mass $0.1\,kg$ is attached to a cord of $1\,m$ length. Starting from the height of its point of suspension,this sphere hits a block of the same mass at rest on a frictionless table. If the impact is elastic,then the kinetic energy of the block after the collision is ............. $J$.
