Gravity pulls it down

========================

Funny how gravity pulls a rock down
but the rock doesn't bounce.
There must be more to it.

--------------------------------------------------


There is. Far more.


All materials (media) or objects have a degree of compressibility on interaction with another mass. They also then have a separate degree of ability to recover their original form (some may just 'dent'). This may be considered as a 'co-efficient of reconstitution' which is peculiar to each body.


Balls are designed to have high and rapid shape recovery.


(Balls can bounce in any direction wrt any local gravity, but gravity is a common accelerative cause).

A ball is dropped from a height of 125m each time it hits the ground it bounces 35 of the height it fell how high will the ball bounce on the 3rd bounce?

On the third bounce, the ball will bounce to a height of 35% of the previous bounce height (35% of 35% of 125m). Therefore, the ball will bounce to a height of (35/100) x (35/100) x 125m = 15.63m on the third bounce.
