Why does a ball bounce higher on floor than rug?
A ball bounces higher on a hard floor compared to a rug because the floor is more rigid and provides a better surface for bouncing. The rug absorbs some of the energy from the ball, resulting in a lower bounce.
When you bounce a ball why do the particles on the floor bounce up with it?
Conservation of momentum. When the ball bounces off the ground, the momentum of the ball is conserved, and since it bounces back up, the ground has to go down. On a hard concrete surface, which is very rigid, the ball moves a large portion of heavy concrete only a minute amount. On a wood or matted floor, only the ground right around the ball goes down (because the material is somewhat elastic/flexible). The particles either appear to jump because the ground is lowering, or they are flung upwards when the ground reverts back to its normal shape.
Does a cold rubber ball bounce?
Well, cold rubber balls do bounce, but warm rubber balls bounce better because when a cold rubber ball hits the floor, it generates heat instead of a rebound effect because the molecules are so close together that they collide with each other.
How many times will a ball bounce if it is high in the air?
There are several variables in this problem. Different balls have different degrees of elasticity. And then there are different kinds of surfaces on which balls can bounce. A ball does not bounce the same way on a grass lawn that it does on a concrete floor. Also the description "high in the air" is not precise. Different heights can produce different numbers of bounces.
In a game of squash how many time can a ball bounce on the gound?
In squash, the ball can bounce once on the floor before the opponent must make a return hit. If the ball bounces twice or more, it is considered a point for the opposing player.
If A rubber ball is dropped on the floor what force causes it to bounce?
kinetic and potential energy.

What is a bounce pass in basketball?
A bounce pass in basketball is a way of getting the ball to another player without passing it directly to them through the air. Rather, the ball is bounced off the floor to the other player.
How do you rubber floor?
you first have to get rubber and glue it on your floor and you have a rubber floor

If you drop a ball on the floor why does it bounce back up?
When a ball is dropped on the floor, it compresses briefly upon impact. This compression stores potential energy, which is then released as kinetic energy when the ball bounces back up. The elastic properties of the ball allow it to return to its original shape and bounce back up.
Does rubber bounce higher than leather?
It all depends on how much air there is inside, where you bounce it, and how you bounce it. Well if there were same amount of air, bounced on the same surface and with the same power, a rubber ball would bounce higher. But that doesn't mean a rubber basketball is simply better. People certainly would choose a leather basketball, because it looks better and has a better quality, and can last longer if played indoors. If you were looking for which is better, I would say that's totally upto you, whether you play indoors (a leather ball would be heaps better), or outdoors (a rubber ball is much better in this case). But if you were looking for which bounced higher, it is definitely rubber. This is because a rubber cover is harder than a leath covering. When something is harder, this allows to put more pressure when the ball hits the floor. This causes the ball to bounce higher.
Does a ball bounce higher on rug or floor?
higher on a hard floor...the rug will absorb the bounce
How does the material of a ball affect how bouncy it is?
Think of it like this, if you pick up a ball that you drop on the floor, and squeeze that ball, if it is made out of a material like rubber, it is easy to squeeze, therefor it will bounce high. If the ball is made out of steel, then I personaly could not be able to squeeze it and it won't bounce very high or not bounce at all.
