Basketball and tennis ball: (a) A tennis ball with (small) mass m2 sits on top of a basketball with (large) mass m1. The bottom of the basketball is a height h above the ground, and the bottom of the tennis ball is a height h + d above the ground. The balls are dropped. To what height does the tennis ball bounce? Note: Work in the approximation where m1 is much larger than m2, and assume that the balls bounce elastically.

the basketball bounces back with the same velocity while the tennis ball will bounce back with it's double velocity since mb >> mt.
