Transcribed Image Text:### Problem 3/202
**Objective:**
In this problem, steel balls designed for use in ball bearings must clear a fixed bar (point A) at the top of their rebound when dropped from rest. The vertical drop distance is \( H = 36 \) inches onto a heavy inclined steel plate. Balls with a coefficient of restitution less than 0.7 with the rebound plate are to be rejected. We need to determine the position of the bar by specifying \( h \) and \( s \). Friction during impact is neglected.
**Diagram Explanation:**
- **Inclined Plane:** The steel plate is inclined at an angle \( \theta = 10^\circ \).
- **Drop and Rebound Path:** The ball falls vertically over distance \( H \), impacts the plate, and follows a parabolic trajectory.
- **Variables:**
- \( H \) is the initial vertical drop height (given as 36 inches).
- \( h \) is the vertical height of the bar from the impact point.
- \( s \) is the horizontal distance from the impact point to point A.
- \( \theta \) is the incline angle.
**Answer Calculations:**
- The required values calculated are \( h = 1.263 \) feet and \( s = 1.132 \) feet.
