Determine the total energy loss during impact

Reference no: EM13978483

Two discs having the same mass (m) travel towards one another with velocities vA1 and vB1, both in the direction of the line of impact. The two discs impact one another and rebound in opposite directions. For a coefficient of restitution (e), determine the total energy loss (E) during impact. Write E as a function of m, e, vA1, and vB1.
