What is the regular air pressure in basketball?
The pressure inside the stadium. WHAT DO YOU THINK!!!
What affect the bounce of a basketball?
The pressure from the air inside of it
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 does pumping air into a basketball increase the pressure inside the ball?
Pressure is the ratio of mass per volume. Adding more air (mass) into the fixed volume of the ball increases the pressure inside it. A basketball cannot expand much even when the pressure inside is higher than the outside air.
Why does pumping more air into the basketball increase the pressure inside the ball?
Because - the skin of the basketball 'locks' the air inside so it can't dissipate. The more air you pump into it - the higher the pressure gets.... until it bursts.

Why does the temperature affect the bounce of a basketball?
Because the temprature is responsible for the pressure inside the ball.
Why does the basketball have greater pressure than the beach ball?
There are more particles of gas in the basketball than in the beach ball. So, more particles hit the inside surface of the basketball than hit the inside surface of the beach ball. When more particles hit the inside surface of the basketball, the force on the inside surface of the ball increases. This increased force leads to greater pressure, which makes the basketball feel harder than the beach ball. Hope this helps :)
Why does a flat basketball seem inflated when warmed?
Because the heat causes the air inside the basketball to expand, which increases the pressure in the ball.
What is inside a basketball?
Air is inside of a basketball.
Inside of a basketball?
Air is inside a basketball
Does the air inside a fully pumped basketball have a lower or higher pressure than the outside?
The air inside a fully pumped basketball have a higher pressure than the air outside due to a greater number of gas particles per unit volume inside the ball than in the surrounding air.
