How much does a basketball weigh on all planets?
The weight of a basketball would vary on each planet depending on its gravity. The weight of a basketball on Mars would be about 0.38 times its weight on Earth, on the Moon it would be about 0.17 times its weight on Earth, and on Jupiter it would be about 2.36 times its weight on Earth.
How can you prove that the moon rotates?
Take a ping pong ball and mark an 'X' on it. This 'X' will represent the side of the moon we can see in the night sky from Earth. Naturally, the opposite side of the ping pong ball will represent the side we cannot see from Earth (the far side of the moon). Get a basketball. This will represent the Earth. Take the ping pong ball and make the 'X' face the basketball. Move the ping pong ball around the basketball while keeping the 'X' facing the same direction you started with-do not rotate the ping pong ball. You are simulating the moon orbiting the Earth. If you watch where the 'X' is while the ping pong ball is circling the basketball, you will notice that at some point, all sides of the ping pong ball will end up facing the basketball-this is also what would happen if the moon did not rotate. We would be able to see all sides of the moon. The ping pong ball is not rotating hence we would be able to see all sides of the moon (including the far side). We cannot see about one-half of the moon at any time so we know that it must rotate-it's just that one side is always facing us (due to tidal locking).
When you throw a basketball up in the air where does the gravitational pull of earth affect it most?
The gravitational pull of the earth is a tiny, tiny, tiny bit stronger at the lowest point of the basketball's path, because it's closest to the center of the Earth. But you would need ultra-high-precision instruments to detect the difference.

Is earth about the size of a basketball?
Only if you are in a spaceship very far away and you have a basketball in your hand and it is April 1st. No, the Earth is NOT the size of a basketball. If it were, then there is no way with the technology we have now that we could create a basketball. Also, there is no way that we would be able to have so many basketballs on Earth as we do.

One example why a basketball is like the earth is because they're both the same shape ( a sphere ) ~ OH YEAH~
The black lines that wrap themselves around a basketball represent an example of what type of geometry?
The black lines on a basketball represent an example of geodesic geometry. This type of geometry deals with curved surfaces, where the lines, known as geodesics, represent the shortest paths between points on the surface. In the case of a basketball, these lines illustrate how the spherical shape affects the arrangement and relationship of points on its surface.
In 1980 who did the doctors of dunk represent?
