Question:medium

A ball is dropped on the floor from a height of \(20 \text{ m}\). It rebounds to a height of \(5 \text{ m}\). Ball remains in contact with floor for \(1 \text{ s}\). The average acceleration during contact is (\(g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2\))

Show Hint

Remember that velocity is a vector; since the direction changes, you must add the magnitudes to find the total change in velocity.
