Meriam, Kraige & Bolton — Kinetics of Particles: Problem 3_214

3/214 The 3000-kg anvil A of the drop forge is mounted on a nest of heavy coil springs having a combined stiffness of \(2.8(10^6)\) N/m. The 600-kg hammer B falls 500 mm from rest and strikes the anvil, which suffers a maximum downward deflection of 24 mm from its equilibrium position. Determine the height \(h\) of rebound of the hammer and the coefficient of restitution \(e\) which applies.
