In an inelastic collision,what is conserved?

$A$ ball of mass $1.2 \ kg$ moving with a velocity of $12 \ ms^{-1}$ makes a one-dimensional collision with another stationary ball of mass $1.2 \ kg$. If the coefficient of restitution is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$,then the ratio of the total kinetic energy of the balls after the collision to the initial kinetic energy is:

$A$ ball is let fall from a height $h_0$. It makes $n$ collisions with the earth. After $n$ collisions it rebounds with a velocity $v_n$ and the ball rises to a height $h_n$,then the coefficient of restitution is given by

$A$ particle falls from a height $h$ upon a fixed horizontal plane and rebounds. If $e$ is the coefficient of restitution,the total distance travelled before rebounding has stopped is
