Heat.
When a bouncy ball stops bouncing, the energy that was initially stored in the ball due to its deformation and compression is converted into other forms of energy such as heat and sound. This energy transfer causes the ball to gradually lose its bounce over time.
A basketball eventually stops bouncing due to energy loss from multiple factors, including air resistance and internal friction within the ball. Each time the ball hits the ground, some of its kinetic energy is converted into sound and heat, rather than being fully transferred back into upward motion. Additionally, the energy dissipates as the ball compresses and then expands, leading to reduced bounce height with each successive drop. Over time, these losses accumulate, causing the ball to come to a complete stop.
There are many sports that use a ball, believe it or not but balls have a long history and can be used in various ways. Bouncing is basically the main source to a ball. The question is "what makes a ball bounce". Let's say you were to drop a ball in slow motion, video tape it, or watch the ball closely, you would actually see the ball change its shape. When the ball hits the ground it flattens. Then when the ball comes up it returns to its original shape, this is because of forces and energy. When you drop a ball gravity pulls it toward the floor, the ball gains energy of motion, acknowledged as kinetic energy. When the ball hits the floor and stops that energy has to go "somewhere." The energy goes into deforming the ball-from its original round shape to a squashed shape. When the ball deforms its molecules are stretched apart in certain places, but in other places the molecules are squeezed together. I believe that other than gravity the ball bouncing flat is what helps the ball bounce back up. Does how much air that is in a ball change how high, low, fast, or slow the ball bounces? How much air in a ball does have a great affect on the ball. If you have no air in your ball, how will it bounce back up? When you let the ball go to hit the ground the ball is suppose to bounce back up, but if you have "no'' air in your ball and you let it go the ball might change the shape but it wouldn't bounce back up to you. If you were to have a lot of air in your ball then when you are letting the ball go, the ball will bounce back up and down, a lot of the times a human only has to bounce a ball once for it to bounce at least 3-6 times on its own.
It is not a law of motion that states this. If there was no friction or elastic losses the ball could go on bouncing. It is the slight loss of energy every time the ball bounces, due to compression of the ball and friction between it and the surface, that gradually causes its energy to be given up to the environment.
Some of the energy has converted into heat energy because of the friction, the kinetic energy is gone, but there is potential energy. Also, some of the energy has converted into sound energy from the basketball bouncing. Your friend is wrong because there is still energy like kinetic energy, energy cannot disappear it gets converted.
it is because the kinetic energy possessed by the ball cannot just disappear so when the ball hits the ground the energy deform the ball and the ball wants to go back to it's original shape so it spring back to it's original position and the energy made by the springing of the ball pushes the ball, so the ball bounces
When you let go of a ball, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it falls due to gravity.
No you can not. The ball must hit each side of the table when playing. Otherwise, the point will go to the opponent.
When bouncing on a trampoline, the initial potential energy from being raised up is transformed into kinetic energy as you descend, and then back into potential energy as you push off the trampoline to go back up again. This process continues, with energy being alternately converted between potential and kinetic energy.
When a marble stops moving, its kinetic energy is converted into other forms of energy such as sound and heat due to friction with the surface it stops on. Some of the kinetic energy may also be transferred to the surface of the marble and the surrounding air molecules as vibrations.
It is important to keep in mind that the object of the game is to clear the screen of all the boards by breaking the bricks with the bouncing ball. You can bounce the ball by hitting it off the paddle on the bottom of the screen - which can be moved by you as you choose - or by bouncing off the edges of the screen. The bricks will fall at different rates so you have to be careful the further on you go. The only real rules are not to let the bricks touch the bottom and not to let the ball bouncing fall to the bottom of the screen where the paddle isn't.
Kinetic energy is a function of mass and velocity. Therefore, an object with more mass, such as a bowling ball, would have to go slower than an object with less mass, such as a golf ball. So, if given the same amount of kinetic energy, a bowling ball will go faster than a golf ball, because it has more mass.
