Impulse Spheres

Play value

Nine freely suspended spheres are hung in a row, touching each other. If the first sphere is pulled back and released to collide with the others, something truly amazing can be experienced. The impact force of the sphere travels unseen through the whole row of spheres until it finds its opposite number, the last sphere, which is forced outwards and, with almost equal energy, returns to collide with the row of spheres. The procedure is repeated until the force is dissipated. One or more spheres can be used to create endless variations and number games in a variety of rhythms. The laws of elasticity and energy can be experienced. gardens, zoological and botanical gardens
