Temperature and Coefficient of Restitution of a Table Tennis Ball

The coefficient of restitution (COR) of a bouncing table tennis ball was measured at varying ball temperatures with a Motion Detector. It was found that there is a negative linear relationship between the COR and the temperature of the table tennis ball for temperatures ranging from 5 to 56 ̊C.
