ILLUSTRATED SCIENCE MODEL · BOUNCING BALL

Bounce-energy comparison: Mark one release height

Check that balls are in usable condition and keep the release height fixed. Ball type is the planned factor; floor and starting height remain constant. This authored animation illustrates the process; use real observations for measured results.
