I had never actually wondered this question until I spotted this video. Let’s simply say that not all of the qualities of little balls scale up well. I’m going to categorize this post, very loosely, as a “science.”
What happens when you drop a 50 pound ball of Silly Putty?
Extreme phase change! Viscoelasticity in action! Non-newtonian material behavior!
In other words – cool!
Nice lighthearted post. I enjoy these posts as nice punctuations between articles about "unrelenting attacks on creationism."
