Question

An engineer is working to design a bouncy ball that conserves all of its kinetic and potential energy. She drops the ball to the ground from a height of 3 meters. If it really works, how high should the ball bounce

Answer 1

If potential energy is conserved or remain the same, the ball will bounce 3 m high.

Conservation of energy

The principle of conservation of energy states energy can neither be created nor destroyed  but can be converted from one form to another.

If we apply the principle of conservation of energy, the total potential energy will remain the same.

P.E(initial) = P.E(final)

Thus, If potential energy is conserved or remain the same, the ball will bounce 3 m high.
