Explain the physics of the bouncing

I am making a ball bounce and I had to watch a Youtube video to get the formula for the ball to bounce

I am still kind of lost. Can someone please explain it to me. I understand the theory but if I was to do remake this without tutorial I would probably be lost.

I understand how to get the ball to move along the y\_axis but confused on the bouncing part

It is the problem solving that is getting me confused

def __init__(self, x_pos, y_pos, radius, color):
self.x_pos = x_pos
self.y_pos = y_pos
self.center = pygame.math.Vector2(self.x_pos, self.y_pos)
self.radius = radius
self.color = color
self.gravity = 0.8
self.velocity = 10
self.activate = False


def moveObject(self):
# key = pygame.key.get_pressed()

# if key[pygame.K_SPACE]:
self.velocity += self.gravity. # FROM VIDEO
self.center[1 ] += self.velocity # ball moving along y_axis

if self.center[1 ] >= (480 - self.radius): # FROM VIDEO
self.velocity = -self.velocity # FROM VIDEO
