Wiffle Ball Physics
Jen's groundbreaking research reveals how the airflow inside and outside a wiffle ball influences its trajectory. By utilizing wind tunnels and computer modeling, she uncovers the trapped vortex effect, demonstrating that the speed and angle of a pitch, along with scuffing the ball, can dramatically alter its flight path. This fascinating exploration turns backyard games into a playground for amateur physicists.In this clip
