bouncing ball
There is no such thing as conservation - 100% of the energy you put in
to lift the ball is dissipated when you complete the lift. You then created
a dipole or potential difference and the free gravitational input is able to
be converted to work on the ball when let go small losses in the fall and
most of the work is when it hits the ground.
It is about 83% efficient but over 7.0 cop. That means each successive
bounce goes to about 83% of the previous height with 17% losses, on
the bounce up, 100% of all of that is 100% dissipated at the peak of
each bounce and the dipole will be 83% of the previous height so there
is less gravitational potential to exert as much push on the ball in order
to bounce it up to the same height, obviously, any arguments about
not bouncing to the same height are the blind leading the blind.
Gravity is not theoretically able to contribute - that IS where the potential
comes from for each successive bounce.
Making any comparison to the fact that the ball cannot get to the same
height each time is comparing apples to oranges and does not indicate an
understanding of what is even happening.
Inquorate, I see you mention that math, I was doing complex technical
calculus 20 years ago and it bored me out of my mind. This bouncing ball
math is elementary addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Anyone claiming that you are storing potential when you lift a ball has
no fundamentals that they are working with - it is a myth. Show me the
"potential" that is stored - it is a figment of anyone's imagination when
they claim that - it is an abstract concept.
Lifting a ball doesn't store any more potential than a battery. A battery
doesn't store potential, it is a dipole that has a certain potential difference
between the terminals so that the potential can come in at different
"pressures". The higher you lift something, you are not storing potential
either - you are creating a bigger potential difference. When you let go
of the ball, there is NO MORE of your energy or potential left from your
lift - it is 100% dissipated. When letting go, all the potential is NEW
POTENTIAL that comes into the system to push the ball down and NONE
of this is converted energy or potential from your lifting energy.
Having a proper understanding of what energy and potential is allows all
the pseudo science of talking about the transformation of energy from
one form to another, storing potential and a bunch of pure unadulterated
nonsense to go by the wayside so people can see things for what they are.
Lifting a ball and having free gravitational input come into the system is
not an abstract concept that is taught by ignorant book writers, it is the
only tangible potential that there really is and it is never stored, ever.
