In addition to the fallacy that the ball will keep bouncing for an infinite amount of time, I'd like to add that the ball will never roll even when it stops bouncing, because of the frictionless environment, it will slide instead.
Unless of course it was rolling in the first place and I missed/misread it.
- sswam 16y agoThis is true but I was just looking for the 'infinite number of bounces in a finite time' part; after that it would slide or roll without bouncing, or sit still if there had been no horizontal component initially.
