The material must influence the bounce of a ball: consider an inflated rubber ball versus an inflated aluminum ball. The difference might have to do with the elasticity of the material.
Absolutly. There are five factors that affect how high a ball bounces; mass, shape, friction, impact velocity, and the coefficient of restitution. The coefficient of restituition is the material property that tells you how much energy is lost from the object during impact. It is this property that is most important to your question.
Oh, what a lovely question! The size of a bouncy ball can indeed affect how high it bounces. A larger bouncy ball may not bounce as high as a smaller one because it has more surface area touching the ground, which absorbs some of the energy. Just remember, no matter the size, every bouncy ball has its own unique way of bringing joy and fun into the world.
It does not.It will depend entirely on the elastic properties of the ball itself, in the following ways:1. elastic properties due solely to the way the ball is constructed, like a basketball, which is a bladder holding pressurized air.2. elastic properties of the materials used in its construction. The leather in a basketball, the weird plastic compounds used in a golf-ball, (among the bounciest of balls, by the way, and pretty small) etc.Every (solid) material known has a measurable "modulus of elasticity" which dictates how stretchy (or bouncy) the material is.Using this modulus, among other data, a decent math-person could calculate in advance how high ANY ball would likely bounce, before it was ever done.Also, the surface that is being bounced on has much to do with this; I'm guessing that a standard bowling-ball would bounce higher than a basketball, if dropped onto a surface comprised of solid, hard steel that was 4 feet thick.For that matter, ball bearings (very hard steel) are super-bouncy- they can bounce really high, if dropped onto a very hard, massive surface.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A ball will bounce multiple times when it is high in the air, typically until it loses enough energy from each bounce to come to a stop. The number of bounces can vary depending on factors like the initial height, surface it bounces on, and its elasticity.
One way to test if a steel ball is elastic would be to drop it from a certain height onto a hard surface and measure how high it bounces back. If the ball retains most of its original height, it is likely elastic. Additionally, you could apply a known force to the ball and measure how much it deforms, then release the force to see if the ball returns to its original shape.
Global warming does not directly affect the way a ball bounces. However, changes in temperature and humidity levels can impact the elasticity of the ball's material, which may influence its bouncing properties over time.
Whichever Way the Ball Bounces was created in 1974.
The duration of Whichever Way the Ball Bounces is 1.48 hours.

Tons of tennis would like to how the ball bounces on different types of court surfaces. Becuase of the surface a player will have to change his/her gameplain to fit the surface. So basically anyone playing tennis seriously.

The way a golf ball bounces definitely affects the distance that it will travel. There are different weights and types of golf balls for this reason.
the leather (or rubber) can effect the way it bounces on the hoop, how big the ball is. Remember: Technology is a way to do something better/more efficient
