EMNA Q.15

0. A ball is dropped from a height of 12 m and it rebounds 1/2 of the distance it falls. If it continues to fall and rebound in this way, how far will it travel before coming to rest?

  • Option : A
  • Explanation :

    Total distance travelled by the ball before coming to rest
    = 12 + 2 (6 + 3 + 1.5 +...to?)
    = 12 + 2. ( 6/ (1-1/2))
    = 12 + 2(12)
    = 36m
