V at ground = sqrt(2 g h)
g * Height attained = (1/2) v^2
change in momentum = m * sum of velocity down and velocity up
force = m a = change in momentum / change in time = m (|v|+ |V|) / .00728
so
a = the sum of the absolute values of velocity down and up / .00728
A tennis ball is dropped from 1.47 m above
the ground. It rebounds to a height of 1 m.
With what velocity does it hit the ground?
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s

1. V^2 = Vo^2+2g*h = 0+19.6*1.47 = 28.8
V = 5.37 m/s.
2. V^2 = Vo^2+2g*h
0 = Vo^2+(-19.6)1
Vo = 4.43 m/s.
3. V = Vo+a*T
4.43 = 5.37+a*0.00728
a =
V = 5.37 m/s.
2. V^2 = Vo^2+2g*h
0 = Vo^2+(-19.6)1
Vo = 4.43 m/s.
3. V = Vo+a*T
4.43 = 5.37+a*0.00728
a =
