Problem P. 4247. (April 2010)

P. 4247. As the figure shows, a small object is dropped to a fixed, frictionless slope of angle of elevation \alpha=30o from a height h. The time of the fall is t1. After a totally inelastic collision the object slides down the slope. It covers the same distance s=h on the slope during the time t2. Determine the ratio of t1/t2.
