Does the height that a ball can bounce depend on the size of the ball?

Yes.


Does the size of the ball effect how high it bounces?

I don't believe so. Think of a basketball and a super ball. (I know, this is for example) Both of them bounce super high, and a baseball doesn't bounce. I think it depends on the air inside of it and not the size. Basketballs have air, super balls too, footballs bounce a little also.


Which ball size will bounce the highest?

Bounce height will not depend on the ball's radius. It will however depend on the material of the ball and the speed at which it hits the ground


Would the weight of a basketball affect the bounce?

Bounce is affected by the elasticity of the ball and its internal pressure. The more elastic and optimum pressure, the better the bounce. However, weight is another factor, a heavy ball with the same elasticity and internal pressure as another ball will not bounce as high since force is a function of mass and velocity.


Does size effect the speed of a ball?

yes size effect the speed of a ball.


Does size weight or radius affect a balls bounce?

Weight affects a balls bounce Size affects the weight and the radius affects the size The most important factor is what material the ball is made from.


Does the size of a ball effect how high it bounces?

Not to any appreciable extent. Bounce is caused by the elasticity of the material comprising the ball and the surface on which it is bounced.For example, on concrete a basketball will bounce higher than a baseball, but a golf ball--How high it bounces depends on how much force you exert on it. If you only let it drop, it will not bounce higher that the point you dropped it from and every time it bounces, it will go less and less high. anyway, the bigger the ball, the more force you will have to exert on it to make it bounce higher than the point it was dropped, or "bounced" from.


How high does a super ball bounce at 2 and a half feet?

Not all super balls bounce the same way. We would have to know more about the ball, such as its size and the material it's made of.


How does the size affect the height of a balls bounce?

because a small ball has more density


Why does a larger bouncy ball bounce higher than a smaller one?

size displacement.

Is there a specific bounce height for a field hockey ball?

No. The only specifications required for a legal hockey ball are the weight and size (and sometimes colour).
