Demonstrating Calculus with a Ball and Force Platform (22:26)
Example: A 321 g rubber, playground ball is dropped from a height of 77.8 cm above a force platform. The data for the force of impact collected at 1000 data points per second as a function of time is shown. Please determine a bunch of stuff using calculus. This is an AP Physics C: Mechanics topic.
