The correct answer is:
0.6
First height of rebound, $h_1=e^2 h_0$
$$
\therefore 36=\mathrm{e}^2(100) \Rightarrow \mathrm{e}^2=\frac{36}{100} \therefore \mathrm{e}=\sqrt{\frac{36}{100}}=\frac{6}{10}=0.6
$$
$$
\therefore 36=\mathrm{e}^2(100) \Rightarrow \mathrm{e}^2=\frac{36}{100} \therefore \mathrm{e}=\sqrt{\frac{36}{100}}=\frac{6}{10}=0.6
$$
