When a ball bounces, it rises to 2/3 of the height from which it fell. If the ball is dropped from a height of 36 m, how high will it rise at the third bounce ?

Answer: Option B

Ball is dropped from the height of 36 m when the ball will rise at the third bounce
∴ Required height :
$$\begin{array}{rl}& =\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{2}{3}\times \frac{2}{3}\times 36\\ & =\frac{32}{3}\\ & =10\frac{2}{3}m\end{array}$$
