There is a head-on elastic collision between two particles moving in the same direction with speeds $5 \,m/s$ and $3 \,m/s$ respectively. After the collision,the velocity of the first particle becomes $4 \,m/s$ in the same direction. What is the velocity of the second particle?

$A$ particle of mass $m_1$ collides with a particle of mass $m_2$ at rest. After the elastic collision,the two particles move at an angle of $90^{\circ}$ with respect to each other. The ratio $\frac{m_2}{m_1}$ is

$A$ sphere of mass $m$,moving with velocity $3u$,collides head-on with another identical sphere at rest. If $e$ is the coefficient of restitution,what will be the ratio of the velocity of the second sphere to that of the first sphere after the collision?

Two identical spheres $A$ and $B$ collide with two other identical spheres $C$ and $D$ with the same velocity $v$. What happens after the collision?

$A$ ball of mass $1 \ kg$ moving along the $X$-direction collides elastically with a stationary ball of mass $m$. The first ball (mass $= 1 \ kg$) recoils at a right angle to its original direction of motion. If the second ball starts moving at an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the $X$-axis,the value of $m$ must be (in $kg$)
