$A$ ball is thrown vertically down from a height of $40 \,m$ from the ground with an initial velocity $v$. The ball hits the ground, loses $\frac{1}{3}$ of its total mechanical energy, and rebounds back to the same height. If the acceleration due to gravity is $10 \,m/s^2$, then the value of $v$ is (in $\,m/s$)
