Through the conservation of energy, a rubber ball will never bounce as high as there from which it is dropped. But are liquids subject to the same force?
In particular, if I a pour liquid on the ground, can it splash as high as its origin? I know fluid mechanics makes some things different, is that one of them?
Keeping in mind that splashing can generate drops that are smaller than the original volume of water, can those drops bounce higher ? How does the bouncing potential of a drop relate to its volume ?
