If properly inflated, it will bounce 8 times. Each bounce rebounds about 70%, so 14 feet on the first bounce, then about 10 on the second, etc. until the ball is bigger than the bounce.

It depends on your height.


A ball is dropped from 10 feet above the ground.It hits the ground and bounces up half as high as it fellThis is true for each successive bounce.What height does the ball reach on the fourth bounce?

After each bounce, the ball reaches half of the height from which it was dropped. Since the ball was initially dropped from 10 feet, on the first bounce it will reach 5 feet, on the second bounce it will reach 2.5 feet, on the third bounce it will reach 1.25 feet, and on the fourth bounce it will reach 0.625 feet.


How high should a properly inflated basketball bouce?

A properly inflated basketball should bounce to about 49 to 54 inches when dropped from a height of 6 feet onto a hard surface. The specific bounce height can vary slightly based on factors like the ball's material and the surface it's dropped on. Ensuring correct inflation is crucial for optimal performance and consistency in bouncing.

How high does a super ball bounce when dropped from 5 feet?

A super ball can bounce up to around 90% of its drop height, so if it is dropped from 5 feet, it could potentially bounce back up to around 4.5 feet. However, this can vary based on factors like the surface it bounces on and the initial impact angle.

Does the size of a ball effect how high it bounces?

Not to any appreciable extent. Bounce is caused by the elasticity of the material comprising the ball and the surface on which it is bounced.For example, on concrete a basketball will bounce higher than a baseball, but a golf ball--How high it bounces depends on how much force you exert on it. If you only let it drop, it will not bounce higher that the point you dropped it from and every time it bounces, it will go less and less high. anyway, the bigger the ball, the more force you will have to exert on it to make it bounce higher than the point it was dropped, or "bounced" from.


How high will a basketball bounce if dropped?

If we knew from what height the ball, when dropped, would reach its terminal velocity, and if we knew the percentage of rebound the ball would give, we could then be certain. I can only guess that a basketball will rebound approximately 75% of the height from which it is dropped, and if the height at which it would reach terminal velocity is maybe 300 feet, the ball would bounce back up to 225 feet. Just a guess! A basketball has an elasticity (or "bounciness") of about 56 percent.I'm not sure there's a theoretical limit. In practice, of course, there would be one: when the velocity of the ball impacting the ground is so great the ball explodes rather than bouncing. But you'd have to fire it out of some kind of basketball cannon to get it moving that fast.The official standard for ball inflation is that the ball should bounce roughly 75% of its drop height (specifically, between 49" and 54") when dropped from 6 feet. If you're referring to just the height a dropped ball could bounce and you're not throwing it down with some kind of basketball-downward-hurling machine, you could calculate the theoretical bounce height by figuring out what terminal velocity is for a basketball, calculating how high you'd have to drop it from (assuming no atmosphere) to achieve that velocity, and then multiplying by 0.75. I'm not going to do it for you, because I'm not actually all that interested in the answer, but that's how you could do it if you are.
