v=v1+v2

(v1²+v2²)/v²=3/4

e=(v2-v1)/v

Momentum conservation: mv=mv1+mv2
Thus, v=v1+v2

(v1²+v2²)/v²=3/4

(v1²+v2²)/(v1+v2)²=3/4

(v1²+v2²)/(v1²+2v2²+v1v2)=3/4

1-(v1²+v2²)/(v1²+2v2²+v1v2)=1-3/4 = 1/4

(2v1v2)/(v1²+2v2²+v1v2)=1/4

Thus, (v1-v2)²/v²=1/2

e=(v2-v1)/v = 1/√2

Chekck for calculation mistakes :)
