Coefficient of Restitution Flashcards
1
Q
What is the angle of incidence?
A
The angle of incidence; The angle at which the ball approaches the ground before first contact
2
Q
What is the angle reflection?
A
The angle of reflection; The angle at which the ball reflects after initial impact
3
Q
What is the formula for the Coefficient of Restitution
A
The Coefficient of Restitution = C
Bounce height = h
Drop height = H
AKA C = Square root of h/H
4
Q
