The entire concept works on the conservation of energy. If the ball were to keep its entire amount of energy (both potential and kinetic), it would continue to bounce back to the same height forever. However, in the real world we must include factors such as air resistance and collision forces into the model of this bouncing ball. The factors take away some of the ball's energy, reducing the height it will be able to obtain as it bounce upward. Air resistance is a simple friction force. Proof that the collision transfers energy is the production of sound waves, which required energy to be created.
