how do i find how much energy it starts with, i thought that would be the potential energy? would i need to find energy by adding potential and kinetic, cause if so, i don't have a speedolivermsun said:
wouldn't i still need the final energy to calculate the kinetic energy of the first bounce? after the bounce is 66% of the original height so 0.924molivermsun said:

how?olivermsun said:
do i just subtract potential energies from the start and the max of second bounceemily081715 said:
the answer is 3.3 thanks for walking me throughemily081715 said:
In the first bounce, energy is dissipated through the conversion of potential energy into kinetic energy. As the object falls towards the surface, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. When the object collides with the surface, kinetic energy is dissipated as heat, sound, and deformation of the object.
The amount of energy dissipated in the first bounce can be affected by several factors such as the material and shape of the object, the surface it bounces on, the height from which it is dropped, and the force with which it hits the surface.
No, not all of the energy is converted into heat in the first bounce. Some of the energy is also dissipated as sound and deformation of the object. However, heat is the most common form of energy dissipation in the first bounce.
It is difficult to calculate the exact amount of energy dissipated in the first bounce as it depends on various factors. However, we can use the law of conservation of energy to estimate the amount of energy that is converted into different forms during the first bounce.
No, the amount of energy dissipated in the first bounce does not remain constant. It can vary depending on the factors mentioned above. For example, a softer surface will absorb more energy, resulting in less energy being dissipated as heat.
