Does weight affect how far a catapult launches a tennis ball?

Yes. The force applied by the catapult will cause an acceleration on the tennis ball that is inversely proportional to the mass of the tennis ball.


What is the gravitational potential energy of a tennis ball if the height is 0.8 m and 0.57 kg?

the formulae for gravitational potential energy is =mgh,wher m=mass g=10 m/s2 and h=height.incomplete question.u should mention the height of the hill.it will be =057*10*height of the hill


What is the order of the items to land if you dropped a brick a tennis ball and a maple leaf at the same time and at the same height?

The brick and the tennis ball might land at the same time, but the leaf will fall last.


How can you measure how high a ball bounces?

For tennis balls, the height that a ball bounces is measured by a series of tests. Refer to the ITF link, below, for further information.


How does the height from which a ball is dropped affect it's bounce?

h=(mgH-x)/mgm is massg is acceleration due to gravityH is height from which it is droppedh is height to which it returnsx is the energy lost due to collission with floor(probably dependant on the coefficient of restitution)well an object falls at 9.6 meters a second so every thing falls at the same time no matter what the height is but the bounce depends on what its made of.Serena Williams (USA)Real answer: Because of gravity. The higher you drop a ball, the more force acts upon it, pulling it towards the ground. After hitting an object, an equal and opposite force acts upon the tennis ball, repelling it. This is known as Newton's 3rd law.

What effect will temperature have on the rebound height of tennis balls?

Very little


If you store tennis balls at a warm temperature will it affect the rebound?

Yes it will effect the rebound height. It tends to bounce higher in a warm temperature because the molecules speed up and strike the inner core more and faster so this makes it bounce higher!


Does the rebound height has a constant relationship with the original height of a tennis ball when released from rest and bounces on a bench?

As long as the tennis ball is not thrust downward, yes, the tennis ball will bounce back to the same proportion of its original height, no matter how far it's dropped, as long as the height is small enough that air resistance can be ignored. The ball will eventually come to rest due to this air resistance.


What are some good tennis rebound nets?

Several companies make quality tennis rebound nets. Rally Master and Bakko make several that you can use in a club or home setup. Gamma makes one that is collapsible and easily transported.


Can you fit a tennis rebound net in your car?

It depends on the net and the car. If you drive a Smart Car, there's probably no tennis rebound net that will fit inside. If you have a more common car like a Focus or a Corolla, the Gamma Rebound Net should fit. It collapses down to a 3 1/2 ft diameter.


Does the surface of a tennis court affect the height a tennis ball bounces?

Yes , it does You could even try it yourself for proof. Bounce something on grass then on pavement, you will see a difference in how the softer the lower.


Does mud on a tennis ball affect the height of its bounce?

not as far as you know is not a good answer because it does not explain. the mud will make the tennis ball heavier and denser if it has water in it the ball heavy wont go far for its bounce.


What is the minimum height to become a tennis player for girls?

No Minimum Height! :)


Why does cold affect the height a tennis ball bounces?

the cooler temp. causes the rubber content to shrink and become more of a solid state which in turn is not as flexible.


How high can a tennis ball bounce off a smooth surface?

A maximum of eight feet and three inches. Unless you throw it in metric (ie. using kilos/sq cm) rather than imperial. In the latter case it will travel less: only one metre and thirteen centimetres at a maximum. Alan Scaz.
