Will a basketball or tennis ball bounce higher with more air?
i know that a basketball will because if it has nothing in it, it won't bounce. right? but when you put more helium in, it will bounce high. but if you put to much in it, it might explode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How does air in a basketball affect how you dribble?
If a basketball is flat, it gets stuck on the ground and goes nowhere. If you put alot of air in it, it might explode, so don't put too much. Put just about alot but not too much, the perfect amount almost, where you can poke it a little bit, and it goes really high.
How much running is in basketball?
Depends on how much effort you put into playing.
How do you blow up a basketball with no needle?
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.
How does the air pressure in a room differ from the air pressure in a basketball?
Air pressure in a room is less than that of a basketball since it does not crush the basketball. Think of the crushed can experiment. If you empty a soda can, flip it upside down, put it (carefully) on a boiling pot of water, the can will fill with hot air. You then transfer the can on a container with cold water (making sure the opening of the can is covered with the cold water). You should see the can implode or at least the outside air pressure (since it's greater than that of the air pressure in the can) crush the can. Opposite of the basketball.
Why would you pump a flat basketball?
As air fills the basketball, the pressure expands outward to make the outside of the ball feel harder. The valve on the outside of the ball allows the pump to put air in prevents air from escaping.
What make a basketball bounce higher helium or air?
Helium will make a basketball bounce higher because when it is put into the basketball the air particles move faster and faster causing the basketball to bounce higher.
A basketball is thrown up into the air at it highest point the basketball stops for a fraction of a second The reason that this happen is that?
gravity The downward force of gravity becomes greater than the force you put into throwing the ball upward.
How do you measure the air pressure in an NBA basketball?
Air pressure in an NBA basketball can be measured using a pressure gauge designed for basketballs. The recommended range for an NBA basketball is typically between 7.5 and 8.5 pounds per square inch (psi) when measured with the gauge. It is important to check and adjust the air pressure regularly to ensure optimal performance.
Basketball player required education and training?
