  • While at the Gordon Dam doing our World Record Basketball Shot we decided to see how back spin affected a basketball when dropped from 140m up. The results were way crazier than we expected!

    The reason the ball makes this movement is because it produces lift due to the spin. The spin accelerates the velocity of the air above the ball more than on the bottom, creating a lower pressure zone at the top. This pulls the ball toward the low pressure zone which is forward when throwing the ball straight down (like on this video) and upward in a horizontal movement. Google spinning circle cylinder for more clarification.

    That probably isn’t coriollis (as a lot of people in the comments say), but Bernoulli, or another external factor.
    I’ve made the calculations to get what would the angle be between what we expect (an straight line to the surface) and what we would get with the coriollis acceleration.
    Set a_0= -g j (This is the acceleration not taking into account coriollis)
    Then, we calculate the coriollis acceleration of a mass that it is at the same time accelerating (g). Let’s see if I can explain myself.
    Coriollis acceleration = -2W X V (Where W is the spin vector of the earth)
    And you calculate:
    | î j k. |
    |0. 0. 72.72*10^(-6)|
    |0. -gt. 0. |
    You multiplied by the scalar (-2) and you get that the coriollis acceleration is
    -1.426*10^(-3) î. (We already ser that it is sooooo small, but someone could thing, well, 150 meter are a lot,therefore it should desviate a lot )
    Once we have this we have that the acceleration of the mass , taking into account coriolis should be :
    a_c=-gt j - 1.426*10^(-3)t î
    You integrate this function 3 times in order to get the position function and we get that
    û_c= (-g t^2)j/2 -(1.426*10^(-3)t^3)/6
    You put t=5,53 s. (The time that something at 150m needs to reach the ground)
    And you get the position vector.
    The angle would be 0.01 degrees. Or 266.68•10(-6) rad.
    In other words, the body has only been deviated by 0.04 meter to the right ( î axis)
    this calculations are not taking into account the air friction, but as you can see that would only make the acceleration be even less. In other words, in the video we can see some what is probably the result of aerodynamic forces.

    does the magnus effect the acceleration of the ball, like does it cause the ball to fall slower?

    The shot when you dropped it without the spin is actually an example of the coreolis effect, so you technically had two effects in one video.

    • @mrbouncelol

      +ANDROUMAC1 Coriolis effect wouldn't have such an effect over such a short distance

    • @Defrock78
      @Defrock78 8 років тому

      +ANDROUMAC1 No! The bullshit coriolis effect only has a 3 inch variable at a thousand yards. That went way farther than that could account for. It's due to the curve of the dam and air. You could get that ball depending on wind to fall to the left. When it went straight it went further and did not go left or right. It's spin and lack there of. the spin made the ball go way forward. Just like in golf. No one ever figures the coriolis effect. Your target would move and it would be to late.

    In their original clip they showed themselves spinning the ball with both front and back spin. They have edited that part out to make the theory work in the video. They did both front and back spin and both went over the lake when the front spin should have curved towards the dam. Creative editing will make them famous but science makes them FOS.

    • @howridiculous
      @howridiculous  9 років тому +12

      When we were attempting the world record, we actually threw one win some forward spin and it got sucked back into the Dam, just the same as a ball with top spin dips down in tennis/soccer etc. If you watch the world record shot you'll see the ball doesn't take off and go nearly as far even with a slight amount of back spin, however it did go in the hoop so it was still great!

    • @darwinsimmons1
      @darwinsimmons1 9 років тому

      Not to say that the hoop shot was not amazing, which it was, I was just noting that in the first clip that I saw both drops with spin, backward and forward, went out over the lake.

    • @ravisanjose7913
      @ravisanjose7913 9 років тому

      Darwin Simmons Why would a ball with forward spin go out over the lake? Scientifically speaking, the forward spin should get sucked into the dam, just as the original video poster observed.

    • @darwinsimmons1
      @darwinsimmons1 9 років тому

      In the first clip that was posted, as stated in my earlier claim, both forward and backward spin went over the lake. That was my point. However, as restated by you, the ball with forward spin should have curved into the dam. However, in this current, edited clip, they do not show where they dropped the ball with forward spin, and even fail to mention forward spin. They also edited in showing the person in the boat because so many people were commenting on whether or not they recovered the balls that were dropped.
      The point being is that it was edited to make their point work for the demonstration by removing part of the data from the footage.

    • @ravi-ec2mv
      @ravi-ec2mv 9 років тому

      Darwin Simmons Even if the video was edited, why would forward spin make it go out over the lake ? That makes no sense scientifically.

    Dang. Who knew that adding a bit of spin can dramatically change the ball's path? Landing the world record shot must have been a lot harder than I thought (as if throwing a ball into a hoop 100+ meters wasn't hard enough).

    Make the vertical axis horizontal and you can think of it like baseball. A four-seam fastball is thrown with backspin so the seams give it a slight rising action. A knuckleball is thrown with as little spin as possible, which has led to one of its names being "The Dancer." Only one MLB pitcher can throw a knuckleball (R.A. Dickey), because it's hard for coaches to teach, hard for pitchers to master, hard for a catcher to keep a glove on, but even harder for a batter to make contact on. That's all due to the ball just wafting along at the whim of thermodynamics.
    Now, if he had put topspin on the ball, a la a curveball, and thrown it outward away from the dam, it would have curved back towards the dam and either lightly skimmed off, or would just roll down the wall.
    All of this gives me ideas of how we could spin an asteroid to make it bounce off our atmosphere instead of falling on us.
