Figure 4:
S L
Galileo dropped two cannonballs, a large one and a small one, from the Leaning Tower
of Pisa. They were both made of solid iron, but the large one (L) had a diameter twice
as large as the small one (S). Both balls started from rest, and they hit the ground at
the same time. Which of the following statements correctly describe the situation?
Choose all that apply. More than one answer may be correct.
O The Earth must have pulled harder on the smaller cannonball because it had less
inertia.
The Earth pulled on the two cannonballs equally hard.
O The two cannonballs fell with the same acceleration.
O The Earth must have pulled harder on the larger cannonball because it had more
inertia.
O The two cannonballs had the same amount of inertia.
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.
