MCQ
A ball is projected vertically down with an initial velocity from a height of $20 \mathrm{~m}$ onto a horizontal floor. During the impact it loses $50 \%$ of its energy and rebounds to the same height. The initial velocity of its projection is
  • $20 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$
  • B
    $15 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$
  • C
    $10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$
  • D
    $5 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$

Answer
