A smooth ring is kept on a smooth horizontal surface. From a point P of the ring a particle is projected at an angle α to the radius vector at P. If e is the coefficient of restitution between the ring and the particle and the particle will return to the point of projection after two reflections then 1e+1e2+1e3 is equal to__

Detailed Solution
Let u be the velocity of projection at P. We can find the velocity of rebound at point Q fromtanβ=usinαeucosα=tanαeSimilarly, tanγ=tanβe=tanαe2 2α+2β+2γ=π α+β+γ=π2 α+β=π2-γ tanα+tanβ1-tanαtanβ=cotγ=e2tanα tanα+tanαe1-tanαtanαe=e2tanα on solving we get cot2α=e+e2+1e3=1e+1e2+1e3
