In my Computer science class I was given a problem where I have to simulate a bouncing ball using "real physics". I have been trying to find a equation that will simulate the height of the bounce given a gravity and an arbitrary mass. And I will need to calculate the next bounce and it's height. A lot of the equations I've found require a time. But I don't really care about a time, all I want is to get the next height after the previous bounce until it finally hits height of 0 or close to it. I haven't taken a physics class since high school( 5 years ago) and that was basic physics.
