A billiard ball, initially at rest, is given a sharp impulse by a cue. The cue is held horizontally a distance `h` above the centre line as shown in figure. The ball leaves the cue with a speed `v_(0)` and because of its forward english (backward slipping) eventually acquires a final
speed `(9)/(7)v_(0)` show that `h=(4)/(5)R`
Where `R` is the radius of the ball.
