$A$ particle of mass $m$ collides with another stationary particle of mass $M$. The particle of mass $m$ stops just after the collision. The coefficient of restitution is

  • A
    $\frac{M}{m}$
  • B
    $\frac{m+M}{M}$
  • C
    $\frac{M-m}{M+m}$
  • D

$A$ smooth sphere is moving on a horizontal surface with a velocity vector $(2 \hat{i} + 2 \hat{j}) \ m/s$ immediately before it hits a vertical wall. The wall is parallel to the vector $\hat{j}$ and the coefficient of restitution between the sphere and the wall is $e = 1/2$. The velocity of the sphere after it hits the wall is:
