Collision takes place between two solid spheres denoted as $1$ and $2$. The initial velocities of the spheres are $u_1 = 3 \ m/s$ and $u_2 = 1.5 \ m/s$,and the final velocities are $v_1 = 2.5 \ m/s$ and $v_2 = 3.5 \ m/s$. The coefficient of restitution between the materials of the spheres is nearly:

  • A
    $0.67$
  • B
    $0.78$
  • C
    $0.83$
  • D
    $0.96$
