In the selection of the ram of a pile driver, it is desired that the ram lose all of its kinetic energy at each blow. Hence, the velocity of the ram is zero immediately after impact. The mass of each pile to be driven is 300 kg, and experience has shown that a coefficient of restitution of 0.3 can be expected. What should be the mass m of the ram? Compute the velocity v of the pile immediately after impact if the ram is dropped from a height of 4 m onto the pile. Also compute the energy loss ΔE due to impact at each blow.
