What variables do you think might affect the height to which a dropped ball will bounce?
Gravity, air resistance, the material of the ball, and the height from which it was dropped initially.
A dart is fired horizontally from a dart gun and another dart is dropped simultaneously from the same height If air resistance can be neglected which dart hits the ground first?
they hit same time
If every object has the same acceleration why does a leaf fall slower than a rock?
air resistance, on the moon they did an experiment where they dropped a hammer and a feather at the same height and time and they hit the ground at the same time
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.
Will a baseball or basketball reach the ground first?
If dropped from the same height (a few meters), they would appear to hit the ground at the same time, according to the experiments of Galileo. However, this neglects air resistance on the basketball, which will slow it down more and cause it to hit the ground later (very slightly later). The baseball, which has a smaller area and therefore less air resistance, will hit the ground first.

If there were no air resistance how did the speeds of a feather and a penny compare?
If there was no air resistance and a feather and a penny were dropped from the same height they would both pick up speed by the same amount and they would hit the ground at the same speed and at the same time.
True or false. A 100 lb object and a 2 lb object are dropped from the same height The 100lb object will hit the ground first?
If both objects have similar air resistance factors, they will both hit the ground together.
A marble a textbook and a flaming stick are simultaneously dropped from a height of 10 feet Supposing air resistance upon the falling objects is small enough that it can be neglected which will hit?
Without air resistance? All three will hit the ground at the same time.

Why does a body exerts more force on ground when it is dropped from a certain height than when it at rest at the ground although in both the cases mass and acceleration is constant See discussion too?
Interesting question. But when the object is at rest the potential energy of the object is 0, on the surface that is. When it is on a height h it's potential energy increase and when it is dropped from that height all that potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy just before hitting the ground. This extra force comes from this kinetic energy.
What falls faster when dropped on the moon a hammer or a feather?
If they are dropped from the same height, they will fall at equal velocities because there is no air resistance and their accelerations by gravity are equal.
How long will it take an object dropped from a height of 500 feet to hit the ground?
4 seconds
Is there a link between the height the ball is dropped from and the height to which it bounces?
Yes. Under ideal circumstances - no air resistance, elastic collision (i.e., perfect bounce), the ball should bounce back to the same height from which it was dropped, due to conservation of energy. In practice, some energy is always lost, both due to air resistance and to a non-perfect bounce.
