I don't believe air pressure has any effect on a ball bouncing. Gravity on the other hand greatly effects how a ball bounces. the less gravity the more it bounces.
On the other hand if you are referring to the air pressure inside of a ball that is a different story.
The effect is the inverse, the lower the pressure the less the ball will bounce, where higher pressure will increase proportionatly a higher bounce to the ball.

Does air pressure inside a soccer ball effect it's bounce?
yes. higher pressure = better bounce
Why does a pumped ball bounce higher than a flat ball?
A pumped ball has more air in it to bounce. A flat ball has little air, and has no pressure to bounce off of.
Air pressure effect on soccer ball?
Actually, Recent studys have shown the lower the pressure the farther it goes, But the higher the pressure the better the bounce.
- Does the air pressure of different balls effect the distance?
does air pressure affect the distance a soccer ball travels
How high do bouncy balls bounce?
the ball bounce high cause of the air in the ball If there is more air pressure in the ball it will bounce higher likewise if there is less air pressure it will bounce lower. This could be done by exposing the ball in different temperatures. If the ball gets hotter it will bounce higher and if gets colder it will bounce lower.
Does air pressure inside a soccer ball effect it's bounce?
yes. higher pressure = better bounce
How does air pressure affect how a ball bounces?
Air doesn't effect the bounce of the ball much higher air pressure the harder the ball lower pressure softer the ball temp effects it too colder soft warmer harder

How would the temperature effect the bounce of a basketball?
The temperature of a room will effect the amount a ball will rebound (bounce) off the floor, off a backboard or rim. If a basketball is filled with air to the regulation pressure and then it is moved to a room with a higher temperature, the ball will soon start to bounce more. Alternatively if you move it a cooler room it will bounce less. This is because: Pressure = Volume x Temperature. As the temperature rises (assuming there is no leak in the ball to allow the volume of air to escape) the pressure on the inside of the ball will increase, this will increase the bounce of the ball. If, instead of the temperature rising, it decreases the pressure on the inside of the ball will go down and the bounciness of the ball will go down as well.
What happens when a ball lands in a rain Puddle?
If the ball is inflated (like a basketball or soccer ball) it will become harder as external air pressure is reduced. This will make it bounce higher. It will become softer as external air pressure is increased. It won't bounce as high then and eventually, as it becomes soft enough, it won't bounce at all. These statements assume that no air is added to or removed from the interior of the ball. I'm not sure what the effect would be on a solid rubber ball.
Does leather affect the bounce of a basketball?
The leather is put on the basketball for grip, wear and tear, and consistency. The bounce of the ball comes from the rubber bladder that the leather is surrounding. Air pressure and the quality of the ball effect it's bounce more than the leather.
Do deflated balls bounce well?
No. The less air pressure in the ball, the lower the ball bounces.
When you bounce a basketball on the floor the air pressure inside the ball increases for a moment?
Sure, when the ball gets compressed, the air pressure increases. This will help drive the ball up again.
How does air temperature and air pressure affect your flexibility?
the temperature of a basketball effects it's bounce because the air partacles in the ball slow down causing it to lose pressure and it doesn't bounce as well. if a ball has more pressure it bounces better.
Which ball between a large ball and a small ball with the same amount of air pressure witch ball will bounce the highest?
small ball
Why is the air pressure of a basketball important?
yes because if it has too much air it will either bounce high or explode and if it has not enough air it wont bounce very well
