A rubber ball is dropped on the ground from a height of 1m. What is the height to which the ball will rebound, if the coefficient of restitution between the ball and the ground is 0.8?

A

0.5m

B

0.25n

C

0.64m

D

0.8m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

On perfectly elastic collision, the velocities of the two bodies are interchanged . Hence the two bodies must have equal masses.
or `m_(a) = m_(b)` or `( m_(a))/( m_(b))-1`
