The girl throws the 0.5-kg ball toward the wall with an
initial velocity . Determine (a) the velocity at
which it strikes the wall at B, (b) the velocity at which it
rebounds from the wall if the coefficient of restitution
, and (c) the distance sfrom the wall to where it
strikes the ground at C.

SOLUTION
By considering the vertical motion of the ball before the impact, we have
The vertical position of point Babove the ground is given by
Thus, the magnitude of the velocity and its directional angle are
Ans.
Ans.
Conservation of “y” Momentum: When the ball strikes the wall with a speed of
, it rebounds with a speed of .
