take a tennis ball release it from a height on a hard ground you will observe that the ball after striking the ground bounces several times please answer this several questions given by my teacher
(a) what is the potential energy and kinetic energy when you release the ball?
(b) why does the ball bounce after striking the ground?
(c) from where does the ball get the kinetic energy for motion after striking the ground?

Answer:
After striking the floor the ball bounces back since for every action there is an equal opposite reaction according to Newton's third law of motion. Now from the ground which has potential energy. As the ball stops bouncing, the kinetic energy is being converted into potential energy and hence the speed decreases.

Answer:
the potential energy is less than kinetic energy and the ball bounces back due to the third law of motion which is every force has a equal and opposite reaction.the ball gets kinetic energy for motion from the ground through third law of motion
