$A$ body falls freely onto a hard horizontal surface. If the coefficient of restitution between the surface and the body is $e = 0.8$,then the ratio of the maximum height to which the body rises after the second impact to the initial height of the body is:

  • A
    $256: 625$
  • B
    $64: 125$
  • C
    $16: 25$
  • D
    $4: 5$
