In non-elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.

In a collinear collision a particle with an intial speed v_(0) strike a stationary particle of the same mass. If the final total kinetic energy is 50 % greater than the original kinetic energy the magnitude of the relative velocity between the two particles after collision is .
