## Conservation of Momentum in the X-Direction

### Applying Conservation of Momentum

Applying conservation of momentum in the x-direction for two colliding bodies, we have:

\[ 
m_A (-v_{A}) + m_B (v_B) \frac{3}{15} = m_A (v_A)_x + m_B (v_B)_x 
\]

This simplifies to:

\[ 
-8 \, \text{m/s} + 5 \, \text{m/s} \cdot \frac{3}{5} = (v_A)_x + (v_B)_x = -5 \, \text{m/s} \quad \text{(1)}
\]

Here, \((v_A)_x\) and \((v_B)_x\) are the velocities after the collision in the x direction.

### Coefficient of Restitution

The expression for the coefficient of restitution \(e\) is given by:

\[ 
e = \frac{v_{Ax} - v_{Bx}}{v_{B1} - v_{A1}}
\]

### Substituting Values

Substitute the given values into the expression for restitution:

\[ 
0.5 = \frac{v_{Ax} - v_{Bx}}{5 - 5}
\]

This leads to:

\[ 
v_{Ax} - v_{Bx} = 5 \, \text{m/s} \quad \text{(2)}
\]

### Solving the Equations

On solving equations (1) and (2):

\[ 
v_{Ax} = \, ? \, \text{m/s} \quad v_{Bx} = \, ? \, \text{m/s} 
\]
