Why does a smaller plastic ball bounce higher than a soccer ball?
Because the plastic ball has higher potential while the soccer ball has not.
Why would a ball bounce higher from further up?
It has higher potential energy from higher up.
Will a ball bounce higher if it is dropped from a greater distance?
Depends on if the object has reached it terminal velocity. From an energy standpoint, yes, as long as there is no appreciable loss of energy due to friction. From a common sense standpoint, it will also bounce higher.
Why does the bouncy ball bounce higher the first time it bounces?
The ground absorbs some of the energy.
Will a ball bounce higher if it is dropped from a greater height?
yes up to a certain point as there is more kinetic energy involved.The height of its bounce is limited by its terminal velocity
Why does grass affect the bounce height of a ball?
the higher the grass the higher the bounce.
Why does a tennis ball bounce higher in hard court than grass?
because the hard court is harder so it can have more energy bounce off than soft grass
Which ball goes higher a small ball or big ball?
Because of gravity, a ball with a larger mass will take more energy to bounce than a small ball (of the same material) will, so a small one will usually bounce higher.
Does a ball bounce higher on rug or floor?
higher on a hard floor...the rug will absorb the bounce
What will bounce higher then a rubber ball?
A glass ball will bounce higher than a rubber one.
Does a glass ball bounce higher tha a rubber ball?
No, the glass ball would probably break. And the rubber ball allows for an elastic collision.
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.
