Question 1118714: In physics, one learns that the time required for a ball to fall from a height of h feet (or rise to that height after a bounce) is 14h√ seconds. A superball rebounds 25 % of the height from which it is dropped. Suppose that a superball is dropped from a height of 76 feet.
How much time passes before the ball strikes the ground for the 5th time?
What is the total distance that the ball has traveled, both up and down, when it strikes the ground for the 5th time?
How high does the ball rebound after the 9th bounce?
After which bounce is the first time the ball rebounds less than 3 feet?
