Abstract

The article describes an experiment involving a solid ball resting in a smooth sheet of paper. Topics discussed include the behavior of the ball being independent on the acceleration of the paper as well several different paper removal speeds being investigated experimentally. Also mentioned are calculations involving ball rolling without slipping and ball rolling with slipping.
