A particle of mass m strikes elastically...

A particle of mass `m` strikes elastically with a disc of radius `R`, with a velocity `vec"v"` as shown in the figure. If the mass of the disc is equal to that of the particle and the surface of the contact is smooth, find the velocity of the disc just after the collision.

A small disc and a thin uniform rod of length l, whose mass is eta times greater than the mass of the disc, lie on a smooth horizontal plane. The disc is set in motion, in horiozontal direction and perpendicular to the rod, with velocity v, after which it elastically collides with the end of the rod. Find the velocity of the disc and the angular velocity of the rod after the collision. At what value of eta will the velocity of the disc after the collision be equal to zero? reverse its direction?
