Questions  

Two spheres moving in opposite directions with velocities u1 and u2 collide will each other. If e is the coefficient of restitution, their distance of separation at time ‘t’ after collision is

a
(u1-u2)et
b
(u2-u1)et
c
(u1+u2)et
d
u1u2et

detailed solution

Correct option is C

v2−v1u1−u2=e      vel. of separationvel. of approachalong the line of impact(v2 - v1) = e (u1 - u2)Separation after time t,  (v2-v1)t = e(v1-v2)tAs v1 and v2 are opposite direction
