This article discusses the vertical motion of a bouncing ball. The ball is either left from rest or given an initial vertical speed <math>u</math> (upward or downward) at some initial vertical height <math>h</math> and then left to itself. While the ball is in the air, the only force on the ball is the [[gravitational force]], so it experiences a downward [[acceleration due to gravity]]. Each time the ball hits the floor, it bounces back with a [[coefficient of restitution]] <math>C_R</math>.
