A rubber ball is dropped from a height of $5 \,m$ on a planet where the acceleration due to gravity is not known. On bouncing, it rises to $1.8\, m$. The ball loses its velocity on bouncing by a factor of
$16/25$
$2/5$
$3/5$
$9/25$
In $a$ smooth stationary cart of length $d, a$ small block is projected along it's length with velocity $v$ towards front. Coefficient of restitution for each collision is $e$. The cart rests on $a$ smooth ground and can move freely. The time taken by block to come to rest $w.r.t$. cart is
A ball strikes against the floor and returns with double the velocity; in which type of collision is it possible?
Explain oblique collision.
In the figure shown, the two identical balls of mass $M$ and radius $R$ each, are placed in contact with each other on the frictionless horizontal surface. The third ball of mass $M$ and radius $R/2$, is coming down vertically and has a velocity $= v_0$ when it simultaneously hits the two balls and the smaller ball does not stop after collision, but continues to move downwards with $a$ speed $= v_0/2$, after the collision. Then, the speed of each bigger ball after collision is
The bob $A$ of a simple pendulum is released when the string makes an angle of ${45^o}$with the vertical. It hits another bob $B$ of the same material and same mass kept at rest on the table. If the collision is elastic
