Which one of the following statements does not hold good when two balls of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ undergo elastic collision?

$A$ ball is thrown vertically downwards with velocity $\sqrt{2gh}$ from a height $h$. After colliding with the ground,it just reaches the starting point. The coefficient of restitution is:

After a head-on elastic collision between two balls of equal masses,one is observed to have a speed of $3\,m/s$ along the positive $x$-axis and the other has a speed of $2\,m/s$ along the negative $x$-axis. What were the original velocities of the balls?
