1. Imagine that someone drops a ball from a certain height and that it bounces several times on the ground. Air resistance is so small that we can neglect it. Use words only to explain the following: a) (2 pts) What happens to the acceleration of the ball as it falls? Why? b) (3 pts) What happens to the kinetic energy of the ball as it falls? Why? c) (3 pts) What happens to the potential energy of the ball as it falls? Why? d) (3 pts) What happens to the total energy of the ball as it falls? Why? e) (3 pts) When the ball bounces, it doesn't return to the same height it was dropped from. Why not?
