Question
**Problem 5: Tennis Bounce**

A tennis ball of mass \( m \) is dropped from a height \( 4h \) and after bouncing on the ground only reaches a height of \( h \). 

(a) Use kinematics to find the speed it hits the ground *and* the speed that it leaves the ground.

(b) What is the change in momentum of the ball?

(c) The force the ground exerts on the ball as a function of time is shown. What is the impulse in terms of \( F_0 \) and \( t_0 \)?

(d) Find the maximum value of the force, \( (F_0) \), in terms of \( h, m, \) and \( t_0 \).

---

**Graph Explanation:**

The graph represents the force \( F \) exerted by the ground on the ball as a function of time. 

- On the horizontal axis, time is marked at intervals \( 2t_0, 4t_0, \) and \( 6t_0 \).
- On the vertical axis, force is indicated with the maximum value marked as \( F_0 \).

The force-time graph forms a trapezoidal shape:
- The force increases linearly from zero, reaches a maximum \( F_0 \) at \( 2t_0 \), remains constant until \( 4t_0 \), and then decreases linearly back to zero by \( 6t_0 \).
