✔ 最佳答案
In the example, you have to apply the law of conversation of energy.
Remember when there is no external force (except gravity),
PE + KE = constant or PE gain = KE loss
Let its original height be h, then the potential energy is mgh.
During the free falling of a ball, the total energy of the ball (= PE + KE) is a constant. The PE of the ball is converted to KE until it hits the ground where all PE is converted to KE.
After the rebounds, as the ball goes up, KE is converted to PE until it reaches its highest point. As the height is h/16.
So,
when the ball is at its original height before rebound: PE = mgh, KE = 0
when the ball is just before collision: PE = 0, KE = mgh
when the ball is at its highest point after rebound: PE = mgh/16, KE = 0
when the ball is just after collision: PE = 0, KE = mgh/16
And you can find the speed by the formula, 1/2 m v^2 = KE
So, (1) and (2) are false, (3) is true.
