For #ScienceSunday we’re sharing a really neat piece from our friends Davidson Institute of Science Education about the physics of table tennis, otherwise known as ping pong!During a game balls can fly across the table at speeds of 100km/hour, change direction shockingly fast, and rotate backwards. There are a few factors that play into why this all occurs. Hit the link below to learn all about the physics and history behind ping pong. Let us know in the comments what was the most interesting thing you learned today! davidson.weizmann.ac.il/en/online/askexpert/physics-table-tennis-aka-ping-pong ... See MoreSee Less
