My son ask me this question today, and I was about to respond when I realized I don't actually know the answer.
Now, based on my understanding; if a ball hits another object with enough force and acceleration; and the other object is resistant enough, the ball will bounce. However, is there any instance where a ball will never bounce?
I know this may be a stupid question, but it got me thinking how we uneducate folks often assume something to be true, without even a basic understanding of how that something actually works.
