    Inelastic Collision .very good one
    A is a fixed point at a height H above a perfectly inelastic smooth horizontal plane. A light inextensible string of length L (>H) has one end attached to A and other end to a heavy particle. The particle is held at the level of A with string just taut and released from rest. Find the height of the particle above the plane when it is next instantaneously at rest.

    If L>H, the particle will be at rest on the plane.
