  1. What factors affect the bounce of a dropped ball?

    If you did not observe a consistent, reproducible trend in your series of experimental runs there may be experimental errors affecting your results. The first thing to check is how you are making your measurements.

  2. The Effect of Dropping a Bouncy Ball from Different …

    A major source of error, though, was that the ball didn’t always bounce back completely vertically. This was particularly apparent in the second and fifth drops at 80 cm, as seen with the large error exhibited on the graph in comparison …

  3. Experimental Physics Lab Manual: Measurement and Error Analysis

    Exp-2: Experiment with a Bouncing Ball Objectives: 1. Observe the potential and kinetic energy conversion and dissipation of total energy due to friction, etc. 2. Observe the …

  4. PS157 Home Experiment: A Bouncing Ball

    The purpose of this experiment is to use a bouncy ball and discover it’s coe cient of resti- tution, before making de nitive claims about what the coe cient of restitution in an object is dependent …

  5. Bouncing Ball Experiment

    Bouncing Ball Experiment. GCSE Science. Alex Boorman Ph10 - - Aim: To find out what affects the height to which a ball bounces. Variables: Height from which the ball is dropped. Mass of the ball. Material ball is made from. External …

  6. The Height Limits and Linearity of Bouncy Balls

    In this physics science fair project, you'll investigate this energy storage and transfer, not in a plant or animal, but in bouncy balls. You'll find out if there are limits on how much energy can be …

  7. The Dynamics of a Bouncing Ball

    Many sports use a ball in some way or another. We throw them, dribble them, hit them, kick them, and they always bounce back! What makes a ball so bouncy? In this experiment you can investigate the effect of air pressure on ball bouncing.

  8. Bouncy Balls and Energy Efficiency

    Purpose of the Investigation. This investigation aims to teach students about energy forms and energy transformations in falling objects. Students will also apply the Law of Conservation to …

  9. The Bouncing Ball Experiment

    Aim: An investigation into the relationship between bounce and drop height for a ping-pong ball And how the forces involved change the outcomes. There are many other factors other than …
