Coefficient Of Restitution: Why Certain Objects Are More Bouncy Than Others?

The video tutorial explores the physics of bouncing balls, focusing on Newton's law of restitution. It explains how energy is converted during a bounce and introduces the coefficient of restitution, a measure of an object's bounciness. The tutorial discusses elastic and inelastic collisions, highlighting the practical applications of these concepts in sports equipment design. By understanding the coefficient of restitution, viewers can make informed decisions about sports gear based on their bounciness.
