I have created a ball fountain, it works. I just would like to know what physics are behind it. What physics concepts are acting on this project. (equilibrium, gravity etc.)
I am looking for any physics concepts that are involved with the weight of the ball being supported by the pressure of water. I decided to make one for myself. Here is all the information that I have for you.
Weight of ball- 11.5 lbs
Diameter of ball-8.270"
Ring is perfectly is shaped to...
Hey! I have been looking over all these threads and have learned a lot. I was curious if anyone here could help me understand the physics of the ball fountain. I was thinking about the forces of the equilibrium with the weight of the granite ball and the water shooting up. I believe their is a...
ok so the width of the bottom of the ring is 5.5 inches. and the top of the ring is 7.5 inches. I need to know the psi and flow. the ball weighs roughly 11.5 lbs. does anyone know the answer to this problem? Thank you.
BALL FOUNTAIN--need help!
Hi, my partner and I are doing a senior project and we are creating a ball fountain. A ball fountain is simply a perfect sphere sitting on a ring that's perfectly matched to the sphere with water shooting up from the bottom and the sphere can begin to spin. Now my...
