Conclusion: The energy of motion from the bigger ball is transferred into the smaller one, allowing it to bounce higher than the larger ball. The analysis shows that the golf ball bounces significantly higher off of both the volleyball and the basketball. Due to Newton’s first law, The larger balls transferred more force into the smaller top balls because an object in motion stays in motion. The hypothesis was supported based on the experiment, stated above, using Newton’s first law. …show more content…
The penny is at rest sitting on top of the card. When you flick the card out from under the penny, you allow gravity (an outside force) to act on it and drop it into the glass. The bottom of the glass stops the penny from falling. However, if the penny had way more mass and were falling much faster, it could go right through the glass. So, why doesn’t the penny take off when the card is flicked? If you flick the card correctly, it simply slides out from between the glass and the penny. There’s not enough friction from the card to take the penny with it and then gravity pushes the coin into the
