The height a ball bounces is less than the height of the previous bounce due to friction. The heights of the bounces form a geometric sequence. Suppose a ball is dropped from one meter and rebounds to 95% of the height of the previous bounce. What is the total distance traveled by the ball when it comes to rest? -Does the problem give you enough info to solve the problem? -How can you write the general term of the sequence? -What formula should you use to calculate the total distance?
