Infinite Geometric Series Bouncing Ball Youtube This video shows the solution to a classic problem involving an infinite geometric series. So, an infinite sequence that can be used to represent this situation is 5, 3.25, 3.25, 2.1125, 2.1125, … . the corresponding series can be written as the sum of the two infinite geometric series: one series that represents the distance the ball travels when falling and one series that represents the distance the ball travels when bouncing.
Infinite Geometric Series An Application Bouncing Ball Youtube In this video we use a geometric sequence to determine how high a ball is bouncing and an infinite geometric series to determine the total vertical distance. Practice this lesson yourself on khanacademy.org right now: khanacademy.org math precalculus seq induction infinite geometric series v repeating. A ball is dropped from a height of $20 \, \mathrm{m}$. it rebounds to a height of $16 \, \mathrm{m}$ and continues to rebound to eight tenths of its previous height for subsequent bounces.
