Problem: one ball will drop from a certain height . the height it will reach after rebounding from the floor is 50 percent of the previous height . the total travel is 150 cm when it touches the floor on third time . what is the value of the original height ?
Rationale: "when ball comes down , then i have indicated the distance covered in green when ball goes up , then i have indicated the distance covered in red distance travelled uptil the ball touches the floor 3 rd time : h + 0.5 h + 0.5 h + 0.5 * 0.5 h + 0.5 * 0.5 h h + 2 * 0.5 * h + 2 * 0.25 * h = h ( 1 + 2 * 0.5 + 2 * 0.25 ) = h ( 1 + 1 + 0.5 ) = 150 2.5 h = 150 h = 60 . a is the answer ."
