this is because rubber is flexable and it holds the air tightly so that no air can come out when it bounces
The leather is put on the basketball for grip, wear and tear, and consistency. The bounce of the ball comes from the rubber bladder that the leather is surrounding. Air pressure and the quality of the ball effect it's bounce more than the leather.
Depends on a lot of factors. Climate can effect how long a basketball holds its bounce. Really cold weather (below 50) will cause a basketball to loose it's bounce rather quickly. If stored at room temperature, a basketball should hold its bounce for around 3-6 months.
you bounce a ball in basketball by hitting the ball against the ground.
The air in a basketball lets the basketball bounce.
Grass can impact the bounce of a basketball by absorbing some of its energy. The softer and more damp the grass is, the less bounce the basketball will have compared to a hard surface like a basketball court.
no basketball can't not bounce with rubbing alcohol because that is not something that can bounce a basket ball. I am just using my opinion
Gravity affects the bounce of a basketball by pulling it back towards the ground as soon as it leaves the surface. When the basketball is dropped or thrown, it accelerates towards the ground due to gravity, causing it to bounce off the surface. The height of the bounce is determined by the force with which the basketball hits the ground and the elasticity of the ball.
the basketball will most likely bounce higher on a flat surface
