The rigid 30-lb plank is struck by the 15-lb hammer head H. Just before the impact the hammer is gripped loosely and has a vertical velocity of 75 ft/s. If the coefficient of restitution between the hammer head and the plank is e = 0.5, determine the maximum height attained by the 50-lb block D. The block can slide freely along the two vertical guide rods. The plank is initially in a horizontal position.
