Im doing some physics coursework right now and I need some help - does anybody have suggestions on how to accurately measure the bounce of a ball?

Wat do u want? It's velocity when it hits the ground? It's highest point? It's acceleration?
There's always VUSAT equations. U cud use:
v squared = usquared + 2as
I'm guessing the accel wud b due to gravity n as gemma said, u cud mesure the height...depending on which way u count as positive, either u or v wud b zero so u cud find the other.

Thanks for your replies, I need to measure the bounce at its highest point, but it just happens too fast for me to get a decent reading...

:O im doin that CW! our skools given us theres digital cameras to measure it but just usin that doesnt get us more marks or sumthin hehe the cameras r great we made this film of our science teach and put a UFO on iit its so funi and now hes paranoid that we r filmin him lol

@ highest point, v = 0
but unsure about u - u need 2 find a way 2 sort that one out
then use vusat!
