Chapter 4, Problem 59EAP
A rubber ball is dropped onto a ramp that is tilted at 20°, as shown in FIGURE P4.59. A bouncing ball obeys the “law of reflect ion,” which says that the ball leaves the surface at the same angle it approached the surface. The ball’s next bounce is 3.0 m to the right of its first bounce. What is the ball’s rebound speed on its first bounce?
