Some balls which are made of high-quality rubber (an elastomeric) material, such as tennis or squash balls, could be used for the determination of an important property of such materials called resilience. Since a bouncing ball involves a single impact we call this property "rebound resilience" and express it as the ratio of the rebound height to…

Describes a simple computer-interfaced experiment for recording the response of an RC network to direct current and square input signals. Undertakes a systematic qualitative and quantitative analysis for the high- and low-pass configurations. Suggests some examples of open-ended problems to develop a feel for circuit behavior. (AIM)
