$A$ ball falls vertically onto a floor with momentum $p$ and then bounces repeatedly. If the coefficient of restitution is $e$, then the total momentum imparted by the ball on the floor is:

  • A
    $p(1+e)$
  • B
    $\frac{p}{1-e}$
  • C
    $p(1+\frac{1}{e})$
  • D
    $p(\frac{1+e}{1-e})$

$A$ small steel ball bounces on a steel plate held horizontally. On each bounce,the speed of the ball arriving at the plate is reduced by a factor $e$ (coefficient of restitution) in the rebound,so that $V_{\text{upward}} = e V_{\text{downward}}$. If the ball is initially dropped from a height of $0.4 \text{ m}$ above the plate and if $10 \text{ s}$ later the bouncing ceases,the value of $e$ is:

$A$ ball impinges directly on a similar ball of same mass at rest. If $1/4$ of the kinetic energy is lost by the impact,the value of the coefficient of restitution is

$A$ ball falls freely from a height $h$ on a rigid horizontal plane. If the coefficient of restitution is $e$,then the total distance travelled by the ball before hitting the plane the second time is
