This observatory is designed to detect gravitational waves, however, I feel that it won't work. I am sure I am wrong in my assumption, but I would like someone to explain to me why I am wrong.
I feel that this machine will not work because the gravitational waves passing over the machine will...
There is no practical application. I get a lot of free time at work because working on cars has turned into a boring and tedious job so I have plenty of time to think about random crap that will make no difference in my life.
On a single slope? Yes, that would change everything. The ball would slide, would it not? If it were in a vacuum with no other forces (like gravity) present, the ball would continue on at the same speed till the surface ended, right?
The funnel is large enough at the opening to allow the tennis ball in, however, it quickly becomes smaller at the outlet, much smaller than the tennis ball.
This is why I ask what would happen if there were no friction. The tennis ball wouldn't stop, right?
Hello all, I joined this form to ask you all this question.
If you could make a funnel that has no friction on the inner surface, what would happen if you dropped an object into this funnel?
The ideal funnel: A standard 6 inch long automotive funnel.
The ideal object: A tennis ball...
