At which point does the ball have the greatest potential energy? a. 1 b. 2 c. 3 None 2. An elastic collision would affect the bounce of the basketball in which of the following ways? a. The basketball would bounce up to the original drop height. b. The basketball would bounce up to half the original drop height. c. The basketball would bounce higher than the original drop height. None 3. Which of the following best explains why a basketball bounces higher on a harder concrete/wood surface than on a softer carpeted surface? a. The harder surface absorbs more energy than the softer surface from the ball. b. The harder surface absorbs none of the energy from the ball. c. The harder surface absorbs less energy than the softer surface from the ball. None 4. Which of the following best explains why dropping a basketball from a higher drop height increases the amount of times the ball bounces? a. There is more kinetic energy in the ball when dropped from a higher height. b. There is less kinetic energy in the ball when dropped from a higher height. c. A higher drop point does not affect the amount of bounces. None Time's up
