Q.

Ball A is about to hit a wall at an angle of  incidence of θ=30. But before hitting the wall  it made a head on collision with another identical 
ball B. The ball B then collides with the wall. The  coefficient of restitution for collision between two balls is e1=0.8 and that between a ball and  
the wall e1=0.6 Find the final velocity of ball  B. Initial velocity of A was u=5ms1Neglect  friction tan12.252.34=44

Detailed Solution

or collision of A and B
 VBVA=e1uAuB  VBVA=0.8×5=4 ..............(1)  and mVB+mVA=mu   VB+VA=5          ........... (2)

Solving (1) and (2) we get 
      VB=4.5ms1;VA=0.5ms1
Now B collides with the wall.

Velocity component parallel to the wall remains unchanged.

V11=VBsin30=2.25m/s
Velocity component perpendicular to the wall becomes 
V=e2VBcos30=0.6×4.5×32=2.34m/s
If final velocity makes an angle with normal to the wall
tanα=2.252.34α44 and V=2.252+2.342=3.24m/s
