A ball is dropped from a height of 20 m in the floor and rebounds to 1.25 m after second collision, then coefficient of restitution e is

Anwer carefully, with reasons: a) In an elastic collision of two billiard balls, is the total kinetic energy conserved during the short time of collision of the balls (i.e. when they are in contact)? Is the total linear momentum conserved during the short time of an elastic collision of two balls? c) What are the answers to a) and b) for an inelastic collision? d) If the potenital energy of two billiard balls depends only on the separation distance between their centers, is the collision elastic or inelastic? (note we are talking here of potential energy corresponding to the force during collision, not gravitational potential energy).

A ball falls from a height such that it strikes the floor of lift at 10 m/s. If lift is moving in the upward direction with a velocity 1 m/s, then velocity with which the ball rebounds after elastic collision will be

A ball of mass 'm is released from the top of a smooth movable wedge of mass 'm'. When the ball collides with the floor, velocity is 'v'. Then the maximum height attained by the ball after an elastic collision with the floor is : (Nelect any edge at the lower end of the wedge)
