Ok this could be seen as a cop-out, but I wanna do my piece of A2 physics c/wrk on diabolo, the only idea I have so far is to investigate into the effects of placement of mass on the diabolo and how this effects the length of time it takes to lose its speed to a stop.
Problems:
Any ideas as to how I could speed the diabolo up to a uniform speed each time I do the test with a different mass on it?
Any ideas as to how to apply the mass? I was thinking of using something like plasterscene (sp??) but then this would introduce the problem of the mass not being entirely uniform is applied to the outside rim of the cups.
Also if anybody has any ideas as to other areas of the diabolo I could investigate please do share them as I can literally investigate anything as long as it has something to do with physics.
Cheers!
