उत्तर
Given: m1 = 2m, m2 = m, u1 = 6 cm/s,
u2 = 2u1 = 12 cm/s,
v1 = `("u"_1 + "u"_2)/2 = 9` cm/s
To find: Coefficient of restitution (e)
Formulae:
i. m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
ii. e = `("v"_2 - "v"_1)/("u"_1 - "u"_2)`
Calculation:
From formula (i),
[(2m) × 6] + (m × 12) = (2m × 9) + mv2
∴ 12 + 12 = 18 + v2
∴ v2 = 6 cm/s
From formula (ii),
e = `(6 - 9)/(6 - 12) = (- 3)/(-6) = 0.5`
The coefficient of restitution is 0.5.

Two blocks M1 and M2 having equal mass are free to move on a horizontal frictionless surface. M2 is attached to a massless spring as shown in figure. Iniially M2 is at rest and M1 is moving toward M2 with speed v and collides head-on with M2.
- While spring is fully compressed all the KE of M1 is stored as PE of spring.
- While spring is fully compressed the system momentum is not conserved, though final momentum is equal to initial momentum.
- If spring is massless, the final state of the M1 is state of rest.
- If the surface on which blocks are moving has friction, then collision cannot be elastic.
