Two wooden blocks of mass $M_1$ and $M_2$ rest on a frictionless table. $A$ bullet of mass $m$ is fired at $M_1$ with speed $v$,which gets embedded in it,and the two together finally collide with $M_2$. Find the velocity of $M_2$ after the collision. (Assume the collision between the $(M_1+m)$ system and $M_2$ is elastic and treat the problem as one-dimensional.)

In two separate collisions,the coefficients of restitution $e_1$ and $e_2$ are in the ratio $3:1$. In the first collision,the relative velocity of approach is twice the relative velocity of separation. Find the ratio between the relative velocity of approach and the relative velocity of separation in the second collision.

In a collinear collision,a particle with an initial speed $v_0$ strikes a stationary particle of the same mass. If the final total kinetic energy is $50\%$ greater than the original kinetic energy,the magnitude of the relative velocity between the two particles,after collision,is:
