Elastic collision is due to

In one dimensional elastic collision of equal masses, the velocities are interchanged. Can velocities in one dimensional collision be interchanged if the masses are not equal?

The ratio of velocities of equal masses in an inelastic collision with one of the masses is stationary is

consider a head on collision between two particles of masses m_1 and m_2 . The initial speeds of the particles are u_1 and u_2 in the same direction. The collision starts at t=0 and the particles interact for a time interval /_\t. during the collision the speed of the first particle varies as v(t)=u_1+t//_\ t(v_1-u_1) Find the speed of the second particle as as function of time during the collision.

For elastic collision, coefficient of restitution is

Show that the ratio of velocities of equal masses in an inelastic collision when one of masses is stationary is v_(1)/v_(2)=(1-e)/(1+e)

Obtain the expression for the velocities of the two bodies after collision in the case of one dimensional elastic collision ond discuss the specical cases.
