Question

A particle strikes a horizontal frictionless floor with a speed u at an angle θ with the vertical, and rebounds with a speed v at an angle ϕ with vertical. The coefficient of restitution between the particle and floor is e. The magnitude of v is

Solution

The correct option is D usin2θ+e2cos2θ
As the floor is frictionless and there is no horizontal force, therefore, momentum must be conserved in the horizontal direction.
i.e. musinθ=mvsinϕ
or vsinϕ=usinθ ....(1)
And in vertical direction, vcosϕucosθ=e
or vcosϕ=eucosθ ....(2)
Squaring and adding (1) and (2),
v2(sin2ϕ+cos2ϕ)=u2sin2θ+e2u2cos2θ
v=usin2θ+e2cos2θ.
