Does the surface a ball bounce on affect the bounce of a ball?

Yes. Let's say it bounces on cement. It bounces high and hits the surface perfectly. However, if you were to bounce it on something like carpet, it would either bounce less high, or not bounce at all. This would be due to the fact that the carpet has padding so the ball would not be able to push off of a hard surface because carpet isn't usually hard.


How many times can you bounce a ball in 1 minute?

The number of times you can bounce a ball in 1 minute will depend on your hand-eye coordination, the type of ball, and how high you bounce it. On average, a person can bounce a ball around 60-80 times in a minute.


What kind of ball that doesn't bounce?

A medicine ball typically does not bounce due to its heavy weight and padding. This type of ball is designed for strength and resistance training.


Can a ball bounce higher on different surfaces?

Soft surfaces (like a pillow) absorb the kinetic energy of the ball due to their plasticity. This makes the ball bounce less. Hard surfaces (like wood, stone) absorb very little energy from the ball due to their rigidity and hence the ball bounces more.


Why do balls bounce high on tiles?

Well it is hard to explain but i will give it a try. It actually depends on what type of ball your talking about. Baseball, Basketball, Waffle balls, etc you looking at a bouncy ball its actually because of the rubber used when you bounce the ball hard do you here that slamming sound? That is the sound of the tiles and the ball meeting and since the tiles are a hard smooth surface rubber works well on it so that's how i think of it.

How do different type of surfaces affect the bounce of a ball?

I am assuming you are talking about tennis. On a grass surface, the ball will bounce fast. On clay courts, the ball will bounce slower than on grass. On a hard court, the speed of the ball bounce will be in between clay and grass.

Type of ball bounce the highist a tennis baa or a basketball?

A tennis ball will bounce the highest because it is smaller. The smaller amount of mass that it has the more it will bounce and the higher it would get. For example, when you put air into a ball the more mass it builds up but, when the ball is flat it would not bounce.


What type of balls bounces the highest?

No ball bounces higher than others. There are different ball for different surfaces and it depends on what surface you are on (clay, hard, or grass). The ball will bounce higher on hard then it does on clay or grass. -tennis player

What type of ball does not bounce?

A lead ball doesn't bounce because of its heavy and dense nature. When dropped, the force of gravity is greater than any potential elasticity, resulting in a ball that doesn't rebound.


Does the type of tennis court surface count in sport technology?

Your question is worded weird but, if the court is made of clay, the ball would bounce better than a dirt court, so it affects how well the ball bounces
