- We want to find the coefficient of restitution e between the ball and the floor. We will be able to measure the time of flight between subsequent bounces, but not the velocities before and after each impact. Question 1 a. Using the kinematics equation for position, find a relationship between the time of flight tn and the velocity of the ball after the nth bounce. You should obtain a quadratic equation that has two solutions for the time tm, but only one of them represents the time of flight. b. Using the kinematics equation for velocity and the relationship determined in the previous step, find the relationship between the velocity right after the nth bounce and the velocity right before the (n +1)th bounce? c. Given your answers to the previous parts of this question and the definition of €, find the coefficient of restitution e in terms of the subsequent times of flight tn and tr+1.arrow_forwardA particle P starts at time t = 0 s at the polar position x = -15 m y = 8 m. The velocity of the particle is written in the polar basis associated with its current position, and is: v = 2ê, m/s. If we have final and final, then we can find final and final with: X final symbolic expression X = ? m, yfinal ? Give your answers in symbolic form. You should use the scalar variables r_f and theta_f. Functions are available like sin(), cos(), atan2(), sqrt(), and log(), as well as the mathematical constants pi and e. The regular arithmetic operators are +, -, *, and /, and x^y means x to the power of y. 5t + k would translate to 5*t+k. Now, find the final Cartesian position of the particle at time t = 2. symbolic expression m, y = ? m marrow_forwardA ball on a table rolls 50 cm to the tables edge, drops 30 cm to the ground, and then continues to roll for 75 cm until eventually coming to a stop.
