Undergrad Effect of temperature on a squash ball
i just realized i bin thinkin that an increase in temp would make the ball harder lol, so infact when the ball gets hotter doesn't it receive the energy to break the bonds of some of the cross links in the pllymer and therefore become more flexible and therefore bouncier im guessing the slower...- destinct

Undergrad Effect of temperature on a squash ball
hey,my gf is doing the effect of temperature on a squash ball expt and i started thinkin about it (im doing physics at uni(and this makes me sound sad dunt it lol)) but why does it bounce higher when hot...is it because the air inside heats up and therefore there is a higher pressure? but i was...- destinct
