Tennis balls bounce because the air pressure inside is higher than the outside pressure. They begin to lose bounce as soon as removed from their pressure can. The alititude where the ball is played will affect the bounce. As they are played, they lose more bounce. Typically, they lose too much bounce to play after about 3 sets of recreational (amateur) tennis, or 8 games of professional tennis.
A new tennis ball will bounce higher. Old tennis balls are considered "dead."
well tenis balls are used for tenis which is a fun sport... but tenis ball (unknown by most people) are extreme alcholics consuming a whopping 50lt a day. most comingly with there beer buddies the saskquatch
The tennis balls nanosize butyl rubber layer slows down the escape of air so the ball doesn't lose its pressure as quickly
because it looses all its air so it wont be able to bounce as high as it would normally do.
when the other team gets lots of balls on your side
According to an experiment for a school assignment that I for maths,a rubber ball bounces higher than a tennis ball- well the balls that I used. Here is a table in which I collected my data. These balls were dropped from one (1) meter, the bounce back has been recorded. I hope this will help you! :)Test No.Rubber BallTennis BallTest 165cm49cmTest 276cm50cmTest 376cm49cmTest 479cm52cmTest 572cm55cmTest 673cm50cmTest 775cm55cmTest 877cm54cmTest 974cm56cmTest 1079cm58cmAverage74.6cm53.2cm
Yes it does, the water accumulates in the ball, which causes it to get heavier and therefore doesn't bounce as high as a normal tennis ball. The ball also tends to slide on the courts when the ball hits the surface when hit with pace.
depends on what height you drop it like 5 inches its 2 seconds
Since golf balls and cement are both very dense, it is harder for the ball to lose it's energy after bouncing since there is nothing to absorb the energy.
There is no specific amount because better players will lose less balls and players on harder courses would lose more. The generally accepted number for a years supply of golf balls is 12 dozen or 144 golf balls.
Tennis balls are geared for different court surfaces. There are tennis balls specifically designed for clay, hard court, and grass court surfaces. Check on the outside of the tennis ball can for the type of court surfaces you should use them on. For example, some tennis balls are specificially made for clay court surfaces. Some tennis balls work on hard court surfaces both indoors and outdoors. Check out your local sports store for many different brands. You also want to make sure that the balls you are playing with are "flat". Tennis balls lose their air pressure after you play with them. You can keep them in a special pressurized tennis ball can, but these are not used very much anymore. Make sure to open a new can of tennis balls when you hit the tennis course for a match. In fact, this a rule in tennis tournaments and leagues. You can squeeze the tennis ball to determine if it is flat. If you can easily squeeze it then it is most likely flat. Or you can bounce the ball to tell. Old tennis balls should be thrown away if they have lost most of their fuzz as well.
if it doesn't bounce when someone hits it, and then you hit. then they get the point. when it bounces and goes off the side, then they get the point. :)
