Why does a football with more air pressure go furthur when you punt it than a football with less air pressure?
The increased pressure within the ball (to a point) brings about increased elasticity in the gas within the ball. Elasticity is the degree to which an object is able to release the energy it receives through a collision, without losing energy to entropy of any kind. No object is perfectly elastic. The energy of the kick will produce energy that goes into deforming the ball and adding heat to it. The gas inside the ball with compress and expand, and there will be some heat in that process as well. These are forms of energy that do not add to the ball's recoil. But the more pressure inside the ball, the more efficient the expansion of the gas becomes, after the kick's compression. Imagine kicking a completely deflated ball. There is little or no elasticity, and the ball will absorb a lot of the kick's energy just in the process of being deformed.
A football with more air pressure is firmer, allowing it to travel farther when kicked because it bounces off the foot with greater force. Additionally, higher air pressure decreases the surface area of contact between the ball and the foot, reducing friction and improving the efficiency of the kick.

Is air pressure more or less than outside the body when you inhale?
less
What happens to the volume of air in the syringe?
A syringe is similar to a balloon in effect on pressure. The more air you insert, the less space for fluid. The more pressure exerted on it, the less volume of air and the more the liquid would fill up the space.
Is low pressure more dense?
Low pressure is less dense than high pressure. In areas of low pressure, air molecules are more spread out, leading to lower density compared to areas of high pressure where air molecules are more closely packed together.
Is air pressure higher or lower in warm areas?
Air pressure is generally lower in warm areas because warm air is less dense and therefore exerts less pressure on its surroundings. Cool air is denser and exerts more pressure, so areas with cooler temperatures typically have higher air pressure.
Does air becomes more or less dense as you climb a mountain?
Air becomes less dense as you climb a mountain. This is because at higher altitudes, there is less atmospheric pressure pushing down on the air molecules, causing them to spread out more, making the air less dense.
Why does a football with more air pressure go further?
Increasing the air pressure in a football makes it more rigid, allowing it to maintain its shape better when kicked. This rigidity helps the football to travel further through the air with less drag and resistance. Additionally, the increased pressure can also result in a harder kick, leading to a longer distance.
Does the football weigh more or less deflated?
Slightly less
If the volume of air is less then the less dense or more dense the air is?
its has more pressure
Measurement of pressure is determined by?
Pressure is directly proportional to force and inversely proportional to Area. If force is more, pressure is more and if area is more, pressure will be less.
Is there more or less atmospheric pressure on the moon than the earth?
Less.
Why does a soccer ball travel so far?
its unusual shape jdiesel121... the reason that it has an unusual shape is that the Football was invented around 1876 by a man by the name of Walter Camp and he figured out that with the shape of the football it is more aerodynamic than any other ball that was created at the time so that is what makes it go farther than other balls.
Is air pressure more or less than outside the body when you inhale?
less
How can a football player lose weight?
By eating less and exercising more.
Why are there so many penalties in Football?
Because there is more pressure on the referees from the media and managers
When pressure increases with constant temperature more or less liquid is formed?
more
Will extending line 1 ft above sink increase water pressure?
No, it will decrease the pressure. The higher you push the water the more pressure it takes to get it there, therefore less pressure at the tip. Putting in a larger supply line, will not only give you more water but less friction loss in the line and more pressure at the tip. A booster pump will also give more pressure.
Would air pressure be less in winter or summer?
More
