A body (1) of mass m1 = 1 kg is released from rest from a height of h1 = 1 m. It then travels down the frictionless ramp, and collides at position A with another body (2) of mass m2 = 4 kg. The coefficient of restitution e = 0.8. Find: a) the (vertical) height h2 up the ramp that body 1 (the 1 kg mass) rebounds to after the collision (insert below) b) the velocity vector of the 4 kg body after the collision (show on worksheet)
