Ball Bounce

Using the Motion Detector

Here, you will find the percent of rebound of a dropped basketball. Using graphing calculator technology, you will graph the ball bounce using the CBRs to determine the maximum height of each bounce, the percent of rebound for each bounce, and the equation that represents the parabola of one bounce.
