1. Balls that are properly inflated such as volleyballs, netballs, soccer balls and basketballs have greater coefficient of restitution. The height that some balls would have on different surfaces are different due to how the ball and what is made for, Some surfaces are more or less elastic then others this effects on how a ball would rebound on a surface. Based on my results I have found that the floorboards are the most effective for the height of rebound. As a temperature of a ball increases the ball will more than most likely the coefficient of the ball will rise as it makes it bounce higher. If it is frozen the coefficient will drop down as the ball will not rebound as high as it normally would.
2. How does court surface affect rebound velocity? The court surface will affect the rebound velocity by depending on what type of court the ball is bounced on for the example in this question outdoor asphalt compared to wooden floors. Asphalt wouldn’t rebound as high as it would normally on a wooden floorboard. Depending on the ball type and court surface everything is different it just depends what it is really made for.
