ABOVE GROUNG
Signature of Teacher

IT REBOUNDS TO
HALF THE HEIGHT
IT FELL FROM
WHICH IS 9 M
Signature of Teacher

AND IT GOES BACK

DOWN 9 M

Signature of Teacher

IT REBOUNDS AGAIN FOR HALF OF

THE HEIGHT IT FELL FROM
WHICH IS 4.5 M BECAUSE HALF
OF 9 M IS 4.5 .

Signature of Teacher

.AND IT COMES BACK DOWN

4.5 M.
AND THAT IS THE 3RD TIME IT
HITS THE GROUNG
Signature of Teacher

.SO, IF WE ADD UP
18 + 9 + 9 + 4.5 + 4.5 = 45
