Raju dropped a rubber ball of mass m from a height h to the ground . He observed that the ball rebounds vertically and along the same line to a height h_1 which is less than h. Find the velocity with which it strikes the ground?

A rain drop of radius 2mm falls from a height of 500m above the ground. It falls with decreasing acceleration (due to viscous resistance of the air) until at half its original, height, it attains its maximum (terminal) speed, and moves with uniform speed thereafter. What is the work done by the gravitational force on the drop in the first and second half of its journey? What is the work done by the resistive force in the entire journey if its speed on reaching the ground is 10m s^(-1) ?
