    Enhancing Ball Mass in Air Jet Experiments: Tips and Techniques

    I suppose I could also use a squash ball, I'd imagine a 20ms air jet will provide enough upward force to allow the ball to gain and maintain a height. I'd expect the squash ball to gain less height than the ping pong ball. What equation could I use to describe this height difference...

    Enhancing Ball Mass in Air Jet Experiments: Tips and Techniques

    Monitoring the height a ball gains in an air jet. Using Ping-Pong Balls and I'd like to keep the air jet velocity (20ms) while varying the mass of the ball. The ball is currently 2g, I'm looking to add another gram to this figure. I thought about paint, does anybody have any other...

    Equation for Floating Ball in Air Jet: F=ma

    i'm probably just better off saying that it follows Newtons 2nd law. Thnx for reply anyway :)

    Equation for Floating Ball in Air Jet: F=ma

    Is anybody aware of an equation that can be used to describe a floating ball in an air jet? http://www.ap.stmarys.ca/demos/content/fluids/bernoulli_floating_ball/bernoulli_floating_ball.html I'd just like to put numbers into an equation and prove that the forces on either side of the...

    A-Level Investigation into Bernoulli Principle

    Hi! I'm a UK based student undertaking A-Level Physics. I am now in my second year completing my majour investigation. We are allowed to study and investigate any physics phenomina(sp) of our choice, I have decided upon a ball in a jet looking into the effects of Bernoulli. One of the...
