Double Ball Bounce, North Carolina State University Physics Demo Room
Astronomy 10 learning goal M3.4
Basketball represents the imploding core, and the golf ball represents the diffuse outer layers. The core implodes during neutronization, and then slightly rebounds outwards, colliding with the outer layers as they begin to fall inwards, resulting in the outer layers rebounding outwards at a much faster speed. Watch frame-by-frame as the basketball falls down, bounces upwards as it hits the golf ball as it is still falling downwards, resulting in the golf ball flying upwards.
