A sphere strikes a wall and rebounds with coefficient of restitution $1/3$. If it rebounds with a velocity of $0.1\, m/sec$ at an angle of $60^o$ to the normal to the wall, the loss of kinetic energy is

Two massless string of length $5\, m$ hang from the ceiling very near to each other as shown in the figure. Two balls $A$ and $B$ of masses $0.25 \,kg$ and $0.5 \,kg$ are attached to the string. The ball $A$ is released from rest at $a$ height $0.45\, m$ as shown in the figure. The collision between two balls is completely elastic. Immediately after the collision, the kinetic energy of ball $B$ is $1\, J$. The velocity of ball $A$ just after the collision is
