Question
For this series of 4 questions, a 1-lb ball is dropped from rest and falls a distance before striking the smooth plane at point A. It bounces from the plane and then strikes it again. You will be asked to solve for different aspects; please note that the numbers may change from problem to problem as they are randomized.

1) If the ball is dropped from rest at a height \( h = 5.2 \, \text{ft} \), what is its speed right before it strikes the plane at point A? Your answer must be precise to two decimal places. The gravitational acceleration \( g \) is given as \( 32.2 \, \text{ft/s}^2 \).

*Diagram Explanation:*

The diagram illustrates the path of a ball dropped from a height \( h \) as it falls and bounces off a smooth plane. The initial drop point is marked, and the path arcs down to point A on the inclined plane. The plane continues to point B at the bottom right, where further action may occur. The diagram includes mathematical notations with angles and distances, indicating potential areas for calculations.

2) If the ball is dropped from rest at a height \( h = 7.0 \) ft, and the coefficient of restitution between the ball and the plane is \( e = 0.1 \), what is its speed right after it strikes the plane at A? (*Hint: when striking the wall/ground, the line of impact is always normal to the surface, and the wall/ground always has a speed of zero.*) Your answer must include 2 places after the decimal point. Take \( g = 32.2 \) ft/s\(^2\).
