Why does the surface effect the bounce of a ball?

Actually, it's not the surface of the ball that has any effect. It has to do with gravity. For example, say you are 5'3 tall. It would have to be the speed you throw it onto the ground, and how hard you throw it. The way it comes back up, reflects the way you have thrown it.

Is a runner out if the first baseman has his hand on the ball while the ball is still no the ground but does not lift the ball off the ground?

Yes. They would be out. Think of it like this. If a runner is running home from third and the catcher slides onto the plate with the ball, the runner is still out, even though the catcher is on the ground. As long as the Defensive player has possession of the ball, and is touching the base, the offensive player would be considered out.

How the ball gets put back in play when it goes out one of the sides?

Depending on where the ball actually went, the player who will take the throw/kick in can physically get the ball himself. However, if the ball has gone into the crowd or is far away from the person taking the throw/kick a sideline official will toss a spare ball to the player. There are occasions where two officials will toss a ball onto the field, in which case the referee designates which ball is the ball in play and someone will remove the extra.

When a tennis ball is dropped to the ground it does not bounce back to its original height?

This is because...when a ball is dropped onto the ground, some of its energy and momentom is lost due to friction from the surface and when it bounces back....the gravitaton force pulls it downwards.... so it does not bounce back to its original height.if the ball is dropped onto an arena where there is zero gravitaion and friction, it will keep on bouncing back to thr same height.Aakash Dangaakash.dang@gmail.comB.tech - IT (3rd Year).
