A ball falls from a height h0. There are n collisions with the earth. If the velocity of rebound after n collisions is vn and the ball rises to a height hn, then coefficient of restitution e is given by :

A

en=hnh0e^{n} = \sqrt{\frac{h_{n}}{h_{0}}}

B

en=h0hne^{n} = \sqrt{\frac{h_{0}}{h_{n}}}

C

ne=hnh0ne = \sqrt{\frac{h_{n}}{h_{0}}}

D

ne=hnh0\sqrt{n}e = \sqrt{\frac{h_{n}}{h_{0}}}

Answer

en=hnh0e^{n} = \sqrt{\frac{h_{n}}{h_{0}}}

Explanation

Solution

hn = e2nh0 or en = hnh0\sqrt{\frac{h_{n}}{h_{0}}}
