Bouncy Ball Experiment Aim: The aim of this experiment is to investigate the efficiency of a bouncing ball‚ and the factors which affect its efficiency. Prediction I predict that the higher I drop the ball from the higher it will rebound up‚ because it will have more gravitational potential energy the higher dropped from. As it is dropped the ball will have kinetic energy‚ and then when it hits the ground changes to heat and sound energy‚ and kinetic as it rebounds back up. The higher up

How high does a ball bounce? Aim: To see how high the bounce of a ball is. The changed variables are the height of where the ball is dropped from. The independent variables of this investigation. The (dependent) variable that will be measured in this investigation is the bounce height of the dropped ball. This shall be observed with one person dropping the ball from above while another person watches the for the highest point the ball reaches. Three variables that could be affected

Steel ball is widely used in machine‚ but also ages rapidly. Therefore‚ knowing the ball mill course and causes of aging can improve the life span. There are four major causes of steel ball aging Firstly‚ cutting and shaping abrasion. The relative sliding motion in the cylinder of ball mill ball is in the rising phase‚ hard material by the group is in cutting groove‚ and cutting softer materials on the ball is of the relatively shallow. Materials produce local shaping abrasion of the

object in motion to remain in motion. But because of gravity the ball is pulled down and resistance that slows the ball down. A quarterback through the motions of his and body‚ must balance the forward momentum that he gives the ball‚ fighting gravity and air resistance that pulls and slows it down. Aerodynamics is involved during passing because of the spin that is applied. The better the spin the straighter and further the ball will travel. This is accomplished by the quarterback throwing the
