The variable that I am going to experiment with during this project is the height that the ball is being dropped from.
Prediction
My prediction is that as I gradually lower the height that the ball is dropped from the ball will bounce lower. This is because as the ball gets lower there is a lesser amount of force pushing the ball downwards therefore giving less velocity for it to rebound up into the air.

do this to see whether these different factors have any affect on the results of this experiment. Another factor that I would like to experiment with would be the temperature of the ball to see if it would have any effect on the height of the bounce. If it did I would like to carry on getting lower and lower to see whether there was a temperature where the atoms no longer vibrated (Absolute Zero).
