There are $n$ elastic balls placed on a smooth horizontal plane. The masses of the balls are $m, \frac{m}{2}, \frac{m}{2^2}, \ldots, \frac{m}{2^{n-1}}$ respectively. If the first ball hits the second ball with velocity $v_0$, then the velocity of the $n^{\text{th}}$ ball will be,

$A$ body $A$ of mass $m=0.1 \; kg$ has an initial velocity of $3 \hat{i} \; ms^{-1}$. It collides elastically with another body $B$ of the same mass which has an initial velocity of $5 \hat{j} \; ms^{-1}$. After the collision,$A$ moves with a velocity $\vec{v}_A = 4(\hat{i} + \hat{j}) \; ms^{-1}$. The energy of $B$ after the collision is written as $\frac{x}{10} \; J$. The value of $x$ is:

$A$ ball initially at rest is hit by another identical ball moving with some velocity as shown. Find the angle $\theta_2$ if the surface is without friction and the collision is perfectly elastic. $......^{\circ}$

$A$ ball of mass $m$ suspended from a rigid support by an inextensible massless string is released from a height $h$ above its lowest point. At its lowest point, it collides elastically with a block of mass $2m$ at rest on a frictionless surface. Neglect the dimensions of the ball and the block. After the collision, the ball rises to a maximum height of
