impact. It follows from analysis, therefore, that increasing the dropheight increases the energy that is dissipated during impact [15,24].Similarly, from the relation between linear impulse and linear momentum, the vertical impulsethat acts on the particle during impact is given by [1-6] ∫ ⃗ (⃗⃗⃗⃗ ⃗⃗⃗⃗⃗)where the subscript “a” stands for ‘after impact’ and “b” stands for ‘before impact’. Hence, ta isthe time immediately after impact and tb is that immediately before impact. Similarly, Va is thespeed immediately after impact and Vb is that immediately before impact. Since energy isconserved during the free fall of the ball before the impact occurs and is conserved again duringrebound of the ball after
