Why would a heated up ball bounce higher than a normal or froze tennis ball?

The air inside the ball expands on heating and this, in turn, makes the ball harder / more elastic.


Why does a heated tennis ball bounce higher?

A heated tennis ball bounces higher because the hot air inside the ball is lighter than the air around the ball therefore giving the tennis ball the ability to bounce higher.


When a ball is heated will the expansion be permanent?

That depends on the material from which the ball is made, if this material is elastic then no.


How does temperature changes elastic properties of tennis ball?

If the weather is cold the ball may harden and become stiff, this makes the ball have less pop and results in a slower playing ball. If the weather is warm then the ball will become more elastic and bounce higher. If the ball is sat outside for extended periods of time the constant cooling and warming of the ball will cause the rubber to lose its form and become flat with no bounce.


What happen when table tennis ball being heated?

When a table tennis ball is heated, its air pressure increases causing it to expand and become softer. This could affect the ball's bounce and flight characteristics, making it slower and less consistent during play. Heating the ball too much can also potentially damage it permanently.


Does the heated tennis ball go higher or the room temperature or the frozen one?

The heated, then the room temperature, then the frozen ball. It's the heated because of how fast the molecules are moving. :)


Does heat change the bounce of a ball?

Yes, heat can affect the bounce of a ball. When a ball is heated, its material may become more elastic, causing it to bounce higher. However, excessive heat can also soften the material, reducing the bounce.


What makes a tennis ball bounce higher than a basketball?

A tennis ball is made of materials that are more elastic than a basketball, allowing it to deform and rebound quicker upon impact, resulting in a higher bounce. Additionally, the size and weight difference between a tennis ball and a basketball also contribute to the tennis ball bouncing higher.


Why does a heated up tennis ball bounce higher than a frozen or room temperature ball?

Because the internal pressure increases when the air in the ball is heated and this increases its 'bounceability'. If the ball is cooled it's like partially deflating it.


Examples of elastic to elastic energy?

Stretching a rubber band or spring stores elastic potential energy that can be released when the band or spring snaps back to its original shape. Compressing a tennis ball or squeezing a stress ball stores elastic potential energy that can be released when the ball returns to its original shape.


How does a tennis ball become heavy?

it become water logged, or soaked in water.


How could you get a dent out of a tennis ball using water?

You can get a dent out of a tennis ball by getting water, heated up to 100 degrees Celsius and place the tennis ball inside the water. Because a dent is like a small depressed place made by pressure, it easily comes out.
