Mastering the physics of a backspinning bouncing ball’s rotation
Master the physics behind a backspinning bouncing ball and uncover the secrets of its rotation! This video explains angular momentum, torque, and energy transfer in a clear, step-by-step way, making ...
[Eric Archer] constructed an analog computer to model the physics of a bouncing ball. The core is a TL074 opamp that does all the integral math. He had no trouble finding descriptions of analog ...
First, in my defense I was just making a model based on the data I had. Of course, I am talking about my first super bounce ball post. Just to get you up to speed, I wanted to see how fast you would ...
Back on Sunday, I devoted a "Football Physics" post to talking about erratic bouncing and an amazing rugby play where a ball popped up high at just the right moment. That's the sort of play that ...
