A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 590 g. With their centers vertically aligned, both balls are released from rest at the same time, to fall through adistance of 2.00 m.

a) Find the magnitude of the downward velocity with which the basketball reaches the ground.
b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instant aneously reverses the velocity of the basketball while the tennis ball isstill moving down. Next, the two balls meet in an elastic collision. To what height does the tennis ballrebound?
