Kinematics 4 Question 8

8. A ball is dropped vertically from a height $d$ above the ground. It hits the ground and bounces up vertically to a height $d / 2$ . Neglecting subsequent motion and air resistance, its velocity $v$ varies with height $h$ above the ground as

Answer:

Correct Answer: 8. (a)

Solution:

(i) For uniformly accelerated / decelerated motion

$v^{2} = u^{2} \pm 2 g h$

i.e. $v - h$ graph will be a parabola (because equation is quadratic).

(ii) Initially velocity is downwards ( $- v e)$ and then after collision, it reverses its direction with lesser magnitude, i.e. velocity is upwards (+ve). Graph (a) satisfies both these conditions.

NOTE

At time $t = 0$ corresponds to the point on the graph where $h = d$ .
