6. A super-bouncy-ball is thrown 25m into the air. The ball falls, rebounds to 70% of the height of the previous bounce and fall

inn [45]

Answer:

The total distance the ball has travelled after it hits the ground the 5th time is of 48.53m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence:

In a geometric sequence, the quotient of consecutive terms is the same. The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:

$a_n = a_1q^{n-1}$

In which $a_1$ is the first term and $q$ is the common ratio.

A super-bouncy-ball is thrown 25m into the air. The ball falls, rebounds to 70% of the height of the previous bounce and falls again.

This means that:

$q = 0.7, a_1 = 25*0.7 = 17.5$

Then

$a_n = a_1q^{n-1}$

$a_n = 17.5(0.7)^{n-1}$

First 5 terms:

$a_1 = 17.5$

$a_2 = 17.5(0.7)^{2-1} = 12.25$

$a_3 = 17.5(0.7)^{3-1} = 8.58$

$a_4 = 17.5(0.7)^{4-1} = 6$

$a_5 = 17.5(0.7)^{5-1} = 4.2$

Find the total distance the ball has travelled after it hits the ground the 5th time.

$T = 17.5 + 12.25 + 8.58 + 6 + 4.2 = 48.53$

The total distance the ball has travelled after it hits the ground the 5th time is of 48.53m.

Setler79 [48]

Hi,

25/100 * 36 = 9

So it represents 9/36 = 1/4 of students
