A wedge (free to move) of mass ' M ' has one face making an angle α with horizontal and is resting on a smooth rigid

floor. A particle of mass ' m ' hits the inclined face of the wedge with a horizontal velocity v0. It is observed that the particle rebounds in vertical direction after impact. Neglect friction between particle and the wedge and take M=2 m, v0=10 m s-1, tanα=2, g=10 m s-2. Determine the coefficient of restitution for the impact.

A hemisphere 'S' and a particle 'P' are of same mass 'm'. P is dropped from a height ' h '. A hemisphere 'S' is kept on a smooth horizontal surface. The particle 'P' collides elastically with hemisphere at the point shown in the figure. If θ=45° and after collision the velocity of the particle becomes horizontal. Find the velocities of hemisphere ' S ' and particle ' P ' after collision.

A smooth ball ' A 'travels towards another identical ball ' B with a velocity u. Ball B is at rest and the impact parameter d is equal to 3R where R is radius of each ball. Due to impact the direction of motion of ball A changes by 30°. Find the velocities of the balls ' A ' and ' B 'after collision. It is given that collision is elastic.
