'''Discussion:''' When the ball is swung it is given a momentum. The ball is unable to travel in a straight line, however. The string puts a tension on the ball causing it to arc upward. In other words, the ball is put into a circular trajectory with the centripetal force being provided by the tension in the string which is proportional to the tangential speed of the ball. ||attachment:Ball01-250.jpg||attachment:Ball03-250.jpg|| |

In other words, the ball is put into a circular trajectory due to the centripetal force being provided by the tension in the string which is proportional to the tangential speed of the ball. To prove the is a central force to the audience, just simply let go of the string. The ball will then travel tangent to the circular trajectory it was on. |

Important Setup Notes:
- Please use the Tennis Ball ones only! The brass and wood balls, are for hand-held pendulums and can be dented if smacked around.
Setup and Procedure:
- Hold the string in hand securely.
- Swing the ball into a circular trajectory.
Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:
- N/A
Discussion:
When swinging the ball, which gives it momentum, the ball is unable to travel in a straight line. The string puts a tension on the ball causing it to arc around. In other words, the ball is put into a circular trajectory due to the centripetal force being provided by the tension in the string which is proportional to the tangential speed of the ball. To prove the is a central force to the audience, just simply let go of the string. The ball will then travel tangent to the circular trajectory it was on.
