$A$ ball of mass $m$ is thrown at a wall with speed $v$ at an angle $\theta$ with the normal to the wall. If the coefficient of restitution is $e$,what will be the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the ball after the collision with respect to the wall?

  • A
    $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{\tan \theta}{e}\right), v\sqrt{\sin^2 \theta + e^2 \cos^2 \theta}$
  • B
    $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{e}{\tan \theta}\right), \frac{1}{v}\sqrt{e^2 \sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}$
  • C
    $\tan^{-1}(e \tan \theta), \frac{v}{e} \tan \theta$
  • D
    $\tan^{-1}(e \tan \theta), v\sqrt{\sin^2 \theta + e^2 \cos^2 \theta}$
