  • A
    $\frac{M}{m}$
  • B
    $\frac{m+M}{M}$
  • C
    $\frac{M-m}{M+m}$

$A$ ball moving with velocity $2 \,m/s$ collides head-on with another stationary ball of double the mass. If the coefficient of restitution is $0.5$, then their velocities (in $m/s$) after collision will be:

Two identical balls $P$ and $Q$ moving in the $x-y$ plane collide at the origin $(x=0, y=0)$ of the coordinate system. Their velocity components just before the moment of impact were,for ball $P$,$v_x = 6 \ m/s, v_y = 0$; for ball $Q$,$v_x = -5 \ m/s, v_y = 2 \ m/s$. As a result of the collision,ball $P$ comes to rest. The velocity components of ball $Q$ just after the collision will be:
