Marble Funnel Physics

The set includes marble run stunt pieces such as a spinner slide marble jump double funnel and track splitter and much more.

Marble funnel physics.

I m marblerunzfreak and im here to show you my unique and different marble runs. It answers the question how do the coins spin around the funnel and not fall over and a whole lot more. Im making 3d printed marble machine and i want to create a hyperbolic funnel like this. The marble run comprises a flexible plastic track built from two parallel rails much like a railway.

Hey all long story short. The entrance of a science museum features a funnel into which marbles are rolled one at a time. Large marble funnel duration. I know i should be using conic curve right.

A 5 0 10 3 kg marble begins rolling a large circular orbit. Furthermore we find that the types of trajectories that can arise depend heavily on the funnel shape. These are my first marble runs all made out of a thick kind of. In fact it is straightforward to show that for no funnel surface can the kepler orbits be recovered.

Common claim that the orbits of the rolling marble or coin are the same as the kepler orbits for planets revolving around the sun. Build taller trickier marble runs with this deluxe set. Other than the appearance it works 100 of the time. As this marble goes around it experiences kinetic friction mu k only in the up down direction not the tangential direction.

By adding measurement tools the mathematics underpinning the physics may be demonstrated in a very powerful way linking back to the original insights of mathematical scientists such as isaac newton. But theres so little documentation on it that im kind of l. This section is all about the physics that interplay with the the spiral wishing well fund raising device and the vortx toy. I ve come this far but i have no idea how to get it to hyperbolic shape.

I ll be uploading plenty once i make some more. The internal radius of the funnel at the top is 1 50 m. The marble run isn t that appealing considering the fact that there s duct tape all over it. A marble of mass m is going around the funnel slowly making its way down to the bottom hole which is negligibly small.

The marbles circle around the wall of the funnel eventually spiraling down into the neck of the funnel.
