How does the pressure inside a soccer ball affect the distance the soccer ball travels after the ball is kicked?

the more air that is in the ball is how far it will travel, for example a flat ball will not travel as far as a pumped ball. why? because the bounciness of the ball would not be used when it is not pumped
however this is not really so as if a ball is pumped up to the point that it is hard it will not travel as far as it would if you released some of the air out of it. every ball that needs air to work has an optimal psi if a ball is pumped to that psi it will travel by far the best than below or above.

∙ 11y agoWhen a soccer ball has less air pressure its heavy and can't move easily through the air. When the air pressure is evenly distributed throughout the ball its lighter and can move more easily.
MUch more air pressure usually distabilizes the foot ball. the place where pressure is low generally the ball moves towards that side.
A ball that is flat is heavier because the ball is in a shrunken state. When the ball is pumped, the ball is stretched, making it lighter because the rubber is evenly distributed on all sides, thereby, making the ball much easier to bounce immediately. When the ball is deflated, there is very little movement on the ball's part. The rubber is much heavier, and not worth playing with.

∙ 10y agoA soccer ball that is hard has less 'room' in it for the gas to compress so it springs back with vigor.
A softer or mushy ball will tend to just go oomph, compress much more and spring back softly.
Assuming you kick 2 balls exactly the same way, since the harder ball bounces right back to shape, it will go further.
It's like dropping a ping pong ball and a marshmallow. The ping pong ball will bounce much higher.

but it could, it depends on if the ball is flat or if it's really hard and full with air.

∙ 10y agoif you put a lot of air in a ball . good. the ball will bounce more. if its soccer it will kick further and bounce more

Why a liquid travels up a straw when you suck on it?
1) Air inside the straw moves 2)Pressure inside decreases 3)Pressure of the atmosphere is greater then the Pressure inside the straw=Liquid moves up the straw!!!
What affect the bounce of a basketball?
The pressure from the air inside of it
Is air India travels inside India?
Yes, air India travels inside India. wowrooms.co.in
Why are the wheels on the plane tucked in after take off?
If they were left out the plane would become less aerodynamic; it would take more fuel to go the same distance and speed.It is also because the height at which planes fly have less air pressure as we know air travels from high pressure to low pressure the air inside the wheels comes and the wheel burst out
How does a pressure cooker affect time needed to cook food?
The pressure cooker applies pressure to the food which increases the temperature inside the pressure cooker. Which as a result cause the food to cook faster.
How bubbles affect how fast does water freezes?
it affects the water because the bubbles have oxygen inside them which causes pressure
Why do tornadoes and hurricanes become more dangerous as air pressure inside the centers drop?
Wind is usually driven by differences in pressure. The greater the pressure difference over a given distance, the more force is applied to the air, and the faster the wind goes. Tornadoes and hurricanes have a pressure deficit, meaning pressure is lower inside than outside. The lower the pressure in a tornado or hurricane, the more the pressure changes over a given distance, and thus the greater the wind speed. Faster winds mean more potential for damage.
Does the air pressure inside a basketball affect how high the basketball bounces the hypothesis?
Yes. A full basketball with medium to high pressure will clearly bounce higher than a flat basketball with low pressure.
Why is a whirlwind in a tornado fast?
The atmospheric pressure inside a tornado is very low compared to its surroundings, and that pressure drop takes place over a short distance. When there is a pressure difference between two areas it creates winds. The greater the change over a given distance, the grater the wind speed.
