The masses of two particles \(A\) and \(B\) are 0.2 kg and \(m \mathrm {~kg}\) respectively. The particles are moving with constant speeds \(4 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) and \(u \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) in the same horizontal line and in the same direction (see diagram). The two particles collide and the coefficient of restitution between the particles is \(e\). After the collision, \(A\) and \(B\) continue in the same direction with speeds \(4 \left( 1 - e + e ^ { 2 } \right) \mathrm { ms } ^ { - 1 }\) and \(4 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) respectively.
- Find \(u\) and \(m\) in terms of \(e\).
- Find the value of \(e\) for which the speed of \(A\) after the collision is least and find, in this case, the total loss in kinetic energy due to the collision.
- Find the possible values of \(e\) for which the magnitude of the impulse that \(B\) exerts on \(A\) is 0.192 Ns .

The diagram shows a surface consisting of a horizontal part \(O A\) and a plane \(A B\) inclined at an angle of \(70 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal. A particle is projected from the point \(O\) with speed \(u \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) at an angle of \(\theta ^ { \circ }\) above the horizontal \(O A\). The particle hits the plane \(A B\) at the point \(P\), with speed \(14 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) and at right angles to the plane, 1.4 s after projection. - Show that the value of \(u\) is 15.9 , correct to 3 significant figures, and find the value of \(\theta\).
- Find the height of \(P\) above the level of \(A\).
The particle rebounds with speed \(v \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\). The particle next lands at \(A\).
- Find the value of \(v\).
- Find the coefficient of restitution between the particle and the plane at \(P\).
