Bouncing up and down an Incline
Physics Education, v57 n5 Article 055021 Sep 2022
Experimental results are presented concerning the motion of a ball that bounces up an incline a few times then bounces back down again. The number of bounces up the incline is typically small since the speed of the ball in a direction parallel to the incline decreases rapidly, not only during each bounce but also while the ball is in the air. The ball heads back down the incline when it is incident at right angles to the incline.
