Best Answer

it depends on the ground. for example on gravel, the small Golf ball might hit some small rocks on the side and knock them away, which reduces its energy. it also might bounce of at a very flat angle, rolling over the ground and not bouncing at all. while a larger ball like a Basketball will not be affected in that way by the small stones and will jump higher than the golf ball.

but on a very flat and hard surface the golfball might jump higher. but the bounce height of the basketball depends heavily on the air pressure inside it.

so... there are too many factors to consider.

also what does "most balls" mean?

What kind of tennis ball bounces the highest?

AnswerActually the ball that bounces the highest is the golf ball. This is because it is a combination of elastic energy and solid energy. You see when elastic hits the ground its energy is transferred into the ground and is motionless for a short time until the rebound. When a solid hits ground the ground stores the energy and transfers it to the solid and the rebound. Put them together and the golf ball is your winner!-44gdog44Go sasa ( Saginaw Arts and Sciences Academy)
