Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
A stone was thrown vertically upwards from the ground with a velocity of 50 m/sec. After 5 seconds another stone was thrown vertically upwards from the same place. If both the stones strike the ground at the same time, then the velocity with which the second stone was thrown should be (Assume g = 10 m/sec²)

15 m/sec
25 m/sec
50 m/sec
40 m/sec

Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
‘u₁’ and ‘u₂’ are the velocities of approach of two moving bodies in the same direction and their corresponding velocities of separation are ‘v₁’ and ‘v₂’. As per Newton's law of collision of elastic bodies, the coefficient of restitution (e) is given by

e = v₁ - v₂/u₂ - u₁
e = v₁ - v₂/u₂ + u₁
e = v₂ - v₁/u₁ - u₂
e = u₂ - u₁/v₁ - v₂
