Answer:
400 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Initial height at which ball was dropped = 100m
Rebound heights to the nearest cm = 60, 36, 22...
First we find the rebound percentage x;
x% * 100m = 60
100x % = 60
x = 60%
Hemce, we need to calculate the rebound velocities which aren't given:
0.6 * 22 = 13.2 = 13cm
0.6 * 13 = 7.8 = 8cm
0.6 * 8 = 4.8 = 5cm
0.6 * 5 = 3cm
0. 6 * 3 = 1.8 = 2 cm
0.6 * 2 = 1.2 = 1cm
The total distance the ball travels UP and DOWN :
(100 + 2(60) + 2(36) + 2(22) + 2(13) + 2(8) + 2(5) + 2(3) + 2(2) + 2(1))
= 400 cm
