Why cant you throw a rubber ball far like a hard ball?

If the ball is lighter than the hard ball, then it is because a heavier ball has more force when moving at the same speed as a lighter ball. If they weigh the same, then it is because in some instances, with certain materials, a hard ball with a lot of "ping" to it will bounce further than a rubber ball, due to motive energy being converted to heat in the polymers of the rubber ball, thus decreasing the total motive energy.


What is a responding dependent variable?

In any science investigation you have independent (also called manipulated) variables and dependent (also called responding) variables. If you use a certain independent variable, then you will get a certain dependent variable. Consider throwing a ball into the air. How high the ball goes is a dependent variable. What does it depend on? It depends on the independent variables like how hard you throw, how heavy the ball is, how big the ball is, etc.

Why ball can't bounce on water?

A steel ball sinks in water because weight of water displaced by a steel ball is larger than the body of water.


What makes a marble bounce?

It all depends on what surface it bounces on.Either the ball or the surface changes shape. A rubber ball changes it's shape, but a marble changes the shape of the surface it bounces on. And if the change is only temporary, it snaps back to it's original shape, and the ball bounces.But some energy is lost in the process, and the ball bounces lower each time.Generally a hard surface will make a hard ball bounce higher, since they hardly change shape, and they keep more of their energy. So on an ideal surface a marble would bounce higher than a rubber ball, as long as it doesn't break.Check out liquid metal: http://www.liquidmetal.com/media/ball_bounce_DSL.wmvSkrommel

How do you throw a ball has hard as you can and get it back without hitting something?

Throw it straight up.


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.

If you have thrown a ball you want it back to you nothng is attached to the ball it doesn't bounce of thingsand you just throw it how would you get it back?

Your pretty much goning to have to walk over and get it. However - if you threw it really really hard then you could in theory put the ball into orbit and catch it when it comes back round behind you.

How can you throw a ball as hard as you can and have it come back to you?

You must throw the ball upward because of gravity, you have gravity forcing the ball downward as you push the ball with force upward, and as they say what goes up must come down, which in the end results to the ball coming down towards you.

What are the physics involved with skipping a water polo ball?

Well when you throw the ball you need to throw it quite hard and spin the ball backwards and throw it down. If you throw it too flat then it will merely skim the surface, instead of skipping it. Some people find it easier to use a flat ball, like myself.

Why can't I throw the baseball in the field or during warmups instead I have to baby the ball to get it there and sometimes make overthrows and I used to do fine but not now?

If you can still throw the ball normal at other times and have not developed a shoulder or elbow problem it is most likely a psychological problem. Many younger players (high school and younger) will basically over think about their throw, and in the back of their mind worry about making a bad throw. This will often result in "short arming" the ball, which makes it very hard to throw accurate. My best suggestion is to clear your mind and not worry about making a bad throw. Just field the ball and fire and you'll soon be back to your old self.
