Physics Squash Ball Investigation AIM: To investigate how the rebound of a squash ball is affected by the temperature change. PREDICTION: I predict that the rebound of the squash ball will increase as the temperature increases, but only to a certain extent, and after that the rebound of the squash ball will decrease as the temperature increases. According to the 'Pressure Law,' pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature if the volume remains constant. 1P ? T OR P = constant*T P/T = constant Pressure will increase as the temperature increases, as they are said to be proportional, because when a gas (i.e. in squash ball) is heated, the average speed of the moving particles, in this case molecules, increases. If the volume of the gas is to remain constant, referring to the 'Pressure Law,' its pressure increases due to more frequent and more violent collisions of the molecules...
