you need a balloon and a needle like a pump needle or a cooking needle. blow the balloon up to the max and use a paperclip to keep the air in the balloon. then cut off the tip of the balloon. afterwards use it to keep the needle in the balloon then put the needle in the ball take the clip off and wait. it might not inflate it all the way up but it will do some good until you get a real pump.
The ball rolls when you blow on it because of Friction.
Blow What
You can try using a straw to inflate the basketball by inserting it into the air valve and blowing air through the straw. Another option is to attach the air valve of the basketball to a hair dryer on cool setting to inflate it. Be cautious not to overinflate the basketball to prevent damage.
You either cut a hole, or when you pump the ball, put the tube in and then when it is almost out, leave it there. It should make a hissing sound and you should be able to feel some air blowing. you kill it with a kitchen knife you pop it or take the needle outof the pump to blow it up and just leave it in the basketball
If they are of a professional type (match ball quality) There will be a laced area which covers a small valve - its here the pump with the correct fitting is used - If its a basic retail quality they have a valve similar to that of a bicycle tyre and its here you pump it up
A ball, like liquids, travels downwards. So, when you blow on it, you give a push to the ball. When the ball loses the power, it rolls downwards. (Out the pipe) By: SupeRMAn
they blow up into a ball
they blow up into a ball
at the part where you blow it up Take a piece of tape and place it over the outside of the balloon. Poke the needle through the tape and through the surface of the balloon. The balloon will not pop because the surface of the balloon cannot expand, thus popping the balloon.
Test it like this: Hold the ball as high as your arm will reach without lifting your toes. Then, let it do a fall with no acceleration. If the ball reaches your head with the first bounce it is fully blown up.
