Work Energy And Power Question 320
Question: A ball of mass m hits a wall with a speed v making an angle with the normal. If the coefficient is e, the direction and magnitude of the velocity of ball after reflection from the wall will respectively be -
Options:
A)
B)
C)
D)
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
[a] Let the angle of reflection be
Therefore,
As the coefficient of restitution is e, for perpendicular component of velocity
Velocity of separation = e x velocity of approach
From (1) and (2)
and
