A particle of mass m, collides with another stationary particle of mass M. If the particle m stops just after collision, then the coefficient of restitution for collision is equal to

`M/m`

`m/M`

`m/(2M)`

Zero

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

`implies` For M: `" " u cos theta = V_1` - along common tangent
For m and M : `" "M u sin theta = mV_2` ….. Along common normal.
And `V_2 = eu sin theta implies e = M//m`
