Plan a controlled experiment to investigate how an object’s position is related to the amount of its potential energy by measuring how high the ball bounces. Choose at least four heights from which you will drop the ball. The drop heights may be increased or decreased based on the bounciness of ball. Describe your experiment.

Answer 1

The height to which a ball will bounce depends on the height from which it is dropped, what the ball is made out of (and if it is inflated, what the pressure is), and what the surface it bounces from is made out of. The radius of the ball doesn't really matter, if you are measuring the height of the ball from the bottom of the ball to the ground.
