A soft tennis ball is dropped onto a hard floor from a height of 1.70 m and rebounds to a height of 1.17 m. (Assume that the positive direction is upward.) (a) Calculate its velocity just before it strikes the floor. m/s (b) Calculate its velocity just after it leaves the floor on its way back up. m/s (c) Calculate its acceleration during contact with the floor if that contact lasts 3.50 ms. m/s2 (d) How much did the ball compress during its collision with the floor, assuming the floor is absolutely rigid?

A ball, dropped onto a hard floor from a height of 2 meters, bounces to a height of 1.8 meters, 90% of the initial height. Each subsequent bounce is 90% the height of the previous one. Find the total distance the ball travels up and down (i.e. after the first collision with the ground it has traveled 2 meters down and 1.8 meters up, giving a total distance of 3.8 meters).
