A) 6
B) 3
C) 5
D) 4
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
From the relation of restitution \[\frac{{{h}_{n}}}{{{h}_{0}}}={{e}^{2n}}\] and \[{{h}_{n}}={{h}_{0}}(1-\cos 60{}^\circ )\] Þ \[\frac{{{h}_{n}}}{{{h}_{0}}}=1-\cos 60{}^\circ ={{\left( \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}} \right)}^{2n}}\] Þ \[1-\frac{1}{2}={{\left( \frac{4}{5} \right)}^{n}}\]Þ \[\frac{1}{2}={{\left( \frac{4}{5} \right)}^{n}}\] Taking log of both sides we get \[\log 1-\log 2=n(\log 4-\log 5)\] \[0-0.3010=n(0.6020-0.6990)\] \[-\,0.3010=-n\times 0.097\] Þ \[n=\frac{0.3010}{0.097}=3.1\approx 3\]You need to login to perform this action.
