Concepts:
mv=Ft Mass*velocity=Force*time So...the mass of the ping pong ball times the total velocity of the ball is equal to the force of the paddle times the number of seconds the ball is in contact with the paddle. |
Our video goes over the basic serves and rules to a game of ping pong. It also outlines the physics involved with it. We decided that we should do ping pong because the physics concepts were evident. We made this video using Windows Movie Maker.

Reflection-
I thought that this project went pretty well. We had a clear idea of what we wanted form the start, and we outlined the steps to do it. Unlike our Rube Goldberg Machine project, our time management was much better. One thing that could've gone better was that we should have made a better storyboard before we started. This would have helped us be more productive, instead of trying to figure out what to do next. I learned that some things you just cant do alone, as I was trying to be too much of a leader, almost to the point of being bossy. I also learned I like to edit film! I could have done better at empathy. A lot of times I found myself becoming frustrated at simple mistakes, and I learned how to calm down. Overall, this project was fun and productive at the same time.
