A ball bounces to 34 percent of its original height.

*1) What fraction of its mechanical energy is lost each time it bounces?

*2) What is the coefficient of restitution of the ball-floor system?

- I was able to solve part one and get an answer of .66, but part two I don't know how to approach without a given mass, velocity etc. I have already tried .34 which was incorrect
