MCQ
A $1.0\, kg$ ball drops vertically into a floor from a height of $25\, cm$. If rebounds to a height of $4\ cm$. The coefficient of restitution for the collision is
  • A
    $0.16$
  • B
    $0.32$
  • $0.40$
  • D
    $0.56$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$0.40$
c
Velocity just before collision $=\mathrm{u}=\sqrt{2 \mathrm{gh}}=\sqrt{5} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

velocity just after collision $=\mathrm{v}=\sqrt{2 \mathrm{gh}^{\prime}}=\sqrt{0.8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

$\mathrm{e}=\frac{\mathrm{v}}{\mathrm{u}}=0.4$
