Question

a steel ball is dropped onto a hard floor from a height of 1.30 m and rebounds to a height of 1.25 m. calculate its velocity just before it strikes the floor

Answer 1

Does the information about how high the ball bounces affect what happens to the ball before it hits the ground? Ignore everything except how far it falls. You are given an initial velocity of 0, acceleration is due to gravity, and a displacement. Only one Kinematic uses all of those with the final velocity as an unknown. Good luck!
