How high can a rugby ball bounce?

That depends on the elasticity of the material used to make the rugby ball, the pressure to which it is inflated, and the force exerted on the ball to make it bounce.


When a golf ball is dropped to the pavement it bounces back up a Is a force needed to make it bounce back up b if so what exerts the force?

The force is that of it hitting the pavement since every action has an equal and opposite reaction. or if you want a more precise answer it is the weak force which keeps the atoms separate and then makes it go up because the atoms are to close.


How do you make sentence using bounce?

I watched the ball bounce. (active sentence) The bounce of a small ball was greater than the bounce of a large ball. (passive sentence)


Why do small balls bounce higher than big balls?

Bouncing is a function of the elastic qualities of the ball, due to its composition. But it takes more energy to "manually bounce" a large ball because the person bouncing it is supplying the initial force (rather than just gravity). It is easier for a person to apply a large force to a lighter, smaller ball to make it bounce higher.


Will the ball filling make the ball bounce higher?

It may or may not because the properties of the filling determine the height to which a ball will bounce.


What is the independent variable Will more air in a basketball make it bounce higher?

Yes it will because the pressure in the ball will push it up and down


Does the size of a ball effect how high it bounces?

Not to any appreciable extent. Bounce is caused by the elasticity of the material comprising the ball and the surface on which it is bounced.For example, on concrete a basketball will bounce higher than a baseball, but a golf ball--How high it bounces depends on how much force you exert on it. If you only let it drop, it will not bounce higher that the point you dropped it from and every time it bounces, it will go less and less high. anyway, the bigger the ball, the more force you will have to exert on it to make it bounce higher than the point it was dropped, or "bounced" from.


Make a sentence using 'bounce?

This ball won't bounce very well anymore.


If the bungee cord gets longer what force will make you bounce higher and why will you bounce higher?

gravity will make you bounce higher because as cord gets longer the more force it will take to move it.


How long can a basketball bounce?

Several factors affect the bounce of a basketball including the height that it was dropped from. The bounce factor includes elasticity, air pressure, force applied to it, and how rigid the surface is that the ball is bounced on.


Will grass make a basketball bounce?

No,of course not, the friction between the basketball and the grass would make the ball bounce less.


Why differences surfaces affect how high a ball bounces?

Some surfaces absorb the impact of the ball, thus not "reflecting" the force upward. If you try to bounce a ball on a matress it probably won't bounce much, because much of the impact is absorbed by the matress. If you bounce a ball on the street. You will definetely see a much better response. This is because the ground is not very flexible and does not absorb impact, so most of the strength that is put into throwing the ball downwards is returned.
