1E30.28 Coriolis Ball On Turntable

Roll a ball across a rotating turntable that has been covered with carbon paper. Look carefully for the trace.

A small turntable is covered in white paper overlaid with carbon paper segments. A substantial brass ball is set to roll across the turntable. A motor run by a power supply is set to spin at the edge of the turntable, giving the turntable a tunable, controllable speed.
