The Science of Bouncing!
Think all squash balls bounce the same? Think again! Max and Bjorn look into what makes things bounce better than others - from elasticity to temperature and how it all relates to potential and kinetic energy. Ready for some physics? Go check out this video and write down 4 new things you learn! Send me an email with your 4 new pieces of knowledge! LET'S BOUNCE!
