$(i)$ $m$ as system, along $Y'$
$(ii) $ $M$ as system, along $Y'$
$(iii)$ $(M + m)$ as system, along $X$
$(iv)$  $(M + m)$ as system, along $Y$

$Assertion$ : In an elastic collision of two billiard balls, the total kinetic energy is conserved during the short time of oscillation of the balls (i.e., when they are in contact).
$Reason$ : Energy spent against friction does not follow the law of conservation of energy.

Two identical ball bearings in contact with each other and resting on a frictionless table are hit head-on by another ball bearing of the same mass moving initially with a speed $V$. If the collision is elastic, which of the following figure is a possible result after collision ?

A body starts falling freely from height $\mathrm{H}$ hits an inclined plane in its path at height $\mathrm{h}$. As a result of this perfectly elastic impact, the direction of the velocity of the body becomes horizontal. The value of $\frac{\mathrm{H}}{\mathrm{h}}$ for which the body will take the maximum time to reach the ground is______.
