To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( x \) given that a ball dropped from the ceiling rebounds twice and reaches a height equal to half that of the ceiling. The coefficient of restitution is given as \( \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{1}{x}} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define Variables**: Let \( h \) be the height of the ceiling. The ball is dropped from this height. 2. **Calculate Initial Velocity**: ...
