A small ball is projected from point `P` towards a vertical wall as shown in Fig. It hits the wall when its velocity is horizontal. Ball reaches point `P` after one bounce on the floor. The coefficient of restitution assuming it to be same for two collisions is `n//2`. All surfaces are smooth. Find the value of `n`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`1`
`u` time `(AB)=eu`(time `BC`)`+eu`(time `CA`)
`uv/g=eu(v/g)+euxx2(ev)/gimpliese=1/2`
`n=1`
