Energy is transferred from one from to the other. For this part of the lab you will be using a ball and phyphox app on your phone.
Open the phyphox app and select (in)elastic collision.
Select settings and change the threshold to 0.05 au and minimum delay to 0.1 s.
Place the phone on a table and hold a ball (12-15 inches) above the table. Make sure the ball does not bounce on the phone.
Select heights and drop the ball. Record the data for 5 bounce.
Height # Height (m) PE per mass (J/kg) Energy ratio
Calculate the potential energy per mass from the height () and record it in the table.
Calculate the ratio of energy lost into sound after each bounce.
For example, for the height number 2, the energy ratio will be .

Is the energy conserved for the ball? If not, what is the energy transferred to?
