Explain why a basketball doesn’t bounce the same height each time you drop it.

Hi!

So if you drop a basketball from a higher height, it has more time to gather more energy, which it then forces against the ground and causes the ball to bounce.

Hope this helps! Sorry I didn't really use any technical terms!

The basketball do not bounce back to the same height after each drop due to the fact of loss of kinetic energy.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When the basketball or any ball is dropped off from a certain height it falls down under the influence of gravity with the kinetic energy which has been transferred to the ball with hand by dribble.

When the basketball hits the ground with the kinetic energy, it loses some of the energy to the ground and then with the action reaction pair with the ground, is bounced back but with lower energy to a lower height.

Look at the graph
viva [34]
Here, Carefully look at the graph.
When it is on x=10, it is approximately 10, (slightly less than 10)
Closest value would be 90, so y/x = 90/10 = 9 

So, the density of the graph would be 9 g/cm³

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!

Two parallel plates are 1 cm apart and are connected to a 500 V source. What force will be exerted on a single electron half way
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: 8*10^-15 N

Explanation: In order to calculate the force applied on an electron in the middle of the two planes at 500 V we know that,  F=q*E

The electric field between  the plates is given by:

E = ΔV/d = 500 V/0.01 m=5*10^3 N/C

the force applied to the electron is: F=e*E=8*10^-15 N
