Question

a metal ball and a rubber ball of the same mass are dropped from the same height. After hitting the floor, the rubber ball rises higher that the metal ball. Why

Answer 1

Reason is density because metal Ball has more density with respect to rubber ball

Answer 2

Answer:

When a rubber ball hits a massive object, say, earth, the ball is distorted. A large amount of heat is generated in the ball by the rubbing of the rubber molecules against each other. This effect is essentially absent in a hard material. So a metal ball would often lose less energy upon collision than would a rubber ball.
