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 the height h above the ground is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsA
For the given condition initial height h = d and velocity of the ball is zero. When the ball moves downward its velocity increases and it will be maximum when the ball hits the ground & just after the collision it becomes half and in opposite direction. As the ball moves upward its velocity again decreases and becomes zero at height d/2 . This explanation match with graph ( A ).
