Sir , 
I am using a basic overlap amount to find the force on the bouncing ball. And 
compute the position of the Ball. I have a  following concept question.

When the ball is in the air the only force acting is gravity. So from 
gravitational force we can compute the acceleration and the position. Through 
the explicit euler integration I found the position of the ball until it 
interacts with the wall.  

Once it interacts with the wall I found the overlap amount and from the 
material properties of both the spheres, I computed the force acted upon the 
bouncing ball by the sphere. So I will get a positive force upward and for the 
next time step that positive force addition to the gravity, will be considered 
to compute the position.  Exactly after that one time step if we again compute, 
we get only gravitational force and the ball will com down. 

But in general, the ball has to go up until its velocity has to become zero.  
And ther it has to repeat the same. So how can I model this using force, to 
compute the position of wall? 


Thank you
