Two uniform smooth spheres \(A\) and \(B\) of equal radius are moving on a horizontal surface when they collide. \(A\) has mass 0.1 kg and B has mass 0.4 kg . Immediately before the collision \(A\) is moving with speed \(2.8 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) along the line of centres, and \(B\) is moving with speed \(1 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) at an angle \(\theta\) to the line of centres, where \(\cos \theta = 0.8\) (see diagram). Immediately after the collision \(A\) is stationary. Find:
- the coefficient of restitution between \(A\) and \(B\),
- the angle turned through by the direction of motion of B as a result of the collision.

\section*{5.}
A right circular cone \(C\) of height 4 m and base radius 3 m has its base fixed to a horizontal plane. One end of a light elastic string of natural length 2 m and modulus of elasticity 32 N is fixed to the vertex of \(C\). The other end of the string is attached to a particle \(P\) of mass 2.5 kg .
\(P\) moves in a horizontal circle with constant speed and in contact with the smooth curved surface of \(C\). The extension of the string is 1.5 m . - Find the tension in the string.
- Find the speed of \(P\).
