Coefficient of restitution
Question

Two marbles, A and B, lie on a smooth horizontal circular groove at opposite ends of a diameter. A is projected along the grove and at the end of time t impinges on B. The coefficient of restitution is ‘e’. The time interval between first and second collision is 

Moderate
Solution

Final relative velocity = -e initial relative velocity
t1=2πrev=2te
