How come when a ball is dropped it doesnt reach the original height it was dropped from?

Some of the energy is lost (dissipated) in the process of rebounding. Also, air resistance can slow down the ball a bit.

A ball is dropped from a height of 128 meters Each time the all bounces to half of its previous height After one bounce the ball readches a height of 64 meters How high did the ball reach after the 7?
1 metre
If a stone and a pencil are dropped simultaneously in vacuum fron the same height which of two will reach the ground first?
They will both hit the ground at the same time.
What two properties does the amount of potental energy depend upon?
Weight and height. The potential energy of an object is its weight times its height. The potential energy is turned into kinetic energy as the object is dropped. Potential energy is weight times height, kinetic energy is one half mass times velocity-squared. Mgh = ½ M V^2 To reach a speed of 10 m/s this equation can be solved to show that the object must be dropped through a height of 5.1 metres.
What is an example of dropping an object with greater height that the impact would be bigger?
Momentum and kinetic energy, but this is true only up to a point. Objects dropped in Earth's atmosphere will reach a "terminal velocity" when the force of gravity equals the force of friction or air resistance. The height at which this happens will depend on its mass, density, and shape.
A ball is dropped from 10 feet above the ground.It hits the ground and bounces up half as high as it fellThis is true for each successive bounce.What height does the ball reach on the fourth bounce?
1.75 ft
If a ball is dropped from a height of 128 meters how high did the ball reach after the 7th bounce?
3 ft
A ball of mass 0.150kg is dropped from rest from a height of 1.25m. it rebounds from the floor to reach a height of 0.960m what impulse was given to the ball by the floor?
1.39 Ns up
a penny dropped from the top of the empire state building takes 9.2 seconds to reach the street what is the height of the building?
The height of the building at the 102nd floor is 381 metres. The penny is irrelevant.

How could you determine if it will take the same time for the lighter and heavier object to reach the ground when dropped at the same height in the same time?
drop a heavy object and a light object from the same height at the same time. time it with a stopwatch, or just watch them.

What is the height of a ADA compliant wall Telephone?
The ADA states: Side-reach Telephone: The Maximum height is 54". If side-reach Occurs over an obstruction 24" wide and 34" high, the maximum height allowed is 46" Forward-reach Telephone: The maximum Height allowed is 48". If forward-reach Occurs over an obstruction 20"to 25", the maximum height allowed is 44"
