Bohr--Sommerfeld Quantization I [13 pts total]

Consider the problem of the bouncing ball of mass m in Figure 5. This is the same situation as from Problem Set 3, but now, instead of analyzing the system with the HUP, you will perform the Bohr-Sommerfeld analysis.

General Hint: We give the results of the initial parts of the analysis. If you cannot complete either or both of the first two subsections, proceed with the rest of the problem using the given information.
