$A$ ball of mass $m$ falls vertically to the ground from a height $h_1$ and rebounds to a height $h_2$. The change in momentum of the ball on striking the ground is

  • A
    $mg(h_1 - h_2)$
  • B
    $m(\sqrt{2gh_1} + \sqrt{2gh_2})$
  • C
    $m\sqrt{2g(h_1 + h_2)}$
  • D
    $m\sqrt{2g}(h_1 + h_2)$

$A$ student skates up a ramp that makes an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. He/she starts (as shown in the figure) at the bottom of the ramp with speed $v_0$ and wants to turn around over a semicircular path $xyz$ of radius $R$ during which he/she reaches a maximum height $h$ (at point $y$) from the ground as shown in the figure. Assume that the energy loss is negligible and the force required for this turn at the highest point is provided by his/her weight only. Then ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity):
$(A)$ $v_0^2 - 2gh = \frac{1}{2} gR$
$(B)$ $v_0^2 - 2gh = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} gR$
