Center of Mass: Rubber Cork Bolas

Two unequal rubber stoppers connected by rope are tossed through a UV beam in a dark room. The stoppers trace complex curves, but a fluorescent tape marking the center of …
Top-down UV view of neoprene sheet with fluorescent dot grid; a dark heavy ball sits in a central depression with a glowing spiral trail from a fluorescent ball orbiting inward
Safety

Gravity Well

A stretched neoprene sheet models a 2D gravitational potential well. Students observe how mass creates a depression and how smaller objects orbit, spiral in, or escape depending on launch velocity. …
Full setup: drum shell with fluorescent rubber membrane under UV panel light, with signal generator and amplifier on the right
