A ball falls freely from a height 1 meter to the ground and rebounced to a height of 0.8 meters . find the coefficient restution
Answers
The coefficient of restitution is 0.89
Explanation:
Given as :
The height from where a ball is fall = h = 1 meters
The ball re-bounced up to height = H = 0.8 meters
Let The coefficient of restitution = e
The value of g = 10 m/s²
According to question
∵ velocity of approach before collision= =
Or, =
∴ = m/s
Again
velocity of separation after collision = =
Or, =
Or, = m/s
∴ = 4 m/s
Again
coefficient of restitution =
i.e e =
Or, e =
∴ e = 0.89
So, The coefficient of restitution = e = 0.89
Hence, The coefficient of restitution is 0.89 Answer
