got engineering students. They ( professors) come some interesting ways theories. Granted fun , but fun when they get done. I don’t know about you, but when I was our projects were some engineering students’s College . Mark French, associate professor engineering technology, PhD students things- pong balls that, frankly, I didn’t think were possible.
French’s ping-pong gun frequently used younger kids about Physics. The gun consists ball PVC tube sealed ends, pump air a vacuum. After pumping they break end tube . Pretty simple. But got -pong ball MPH. So they added a nozzle normally used airflow tunnels. The result ping-pong ball 900 MPH. Yes, 900 MPH. The real purpose experiment was to “demonstrate how a de Laval nozzle (also called a convergent-divergent nozzle) converts subsonic gas flow in flow” say blog. OK, sure. I just like below a ping-pong ball gets shot through 5 cans. Watch think you’ll be impressed. If , what, how vis MET section’s website. There a video demonstration ball actually going through a ping-pong paddle. Hats off French students us how velocity everything.
