Back in the fall of 1989, I was a freshman at Williams College, and one Monday night that fall there was some sort of problem with the cable TV in our dorm, so a bunch of us went next door to watch ...
The physics of a bouncing ball is well understood, but a liquid-filled ball can still surprise scientists. A new study published in the American Institute of Physics' (AIP) journal Physics of Fluids ...
In this tutorial, I simulate bouncing balls inside a circle using Python and physics principles! Watch as I demonstrate how to apply collision detection, gravity, and movement in a circular space.

Endless bouncing balls

A physics demonstration shows how bouncing balls can appear to keep moving endlessly, explaining the energy transfer and ...
[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 ...
[Brad] just acquired a 32×32 RGB LED matrix and he jumped right into the deep end with his first project. To try out his skills on the device he used an Arduino to drive a slew of pixels with bouncing ...
