Question
A Super-Duper ball bounces twice its height when it is dropped. Carl dropped a Super-Duper ball from the roof of a 12-foot garage. How high will the ball bounce after 5 bounces?

After 1 bounce: 24 feet
2 bounces: 48 feet
3 bounces: 96 feet
4 bounces: 2 times 96 = ?
5 bounces: ?
2 bounces: 48 feet
3 bounces: 96 feet
4 bounces: 2 times 96 = ?
5 bounces: ?
so, this doesn't follow any rule of physics that the ball would slow down with each bounce?
