A classical mechanics problem by A Former Brilliant Member
A ball of mass 'm' is dropped from a height h1and after striking the ground the ball bounces back to a height h2(h2<h1).If the ratio of kinetic energy while passing a point at height h=[h2/2]in two directions is 2:1,what is the ratio of h1to h2?
The answer is 1.5.
