Lopez-Arias, T.; Gratton, L. M.; Zendri, G.; Oss, S.
Physics Education, v46 n2 p146-151 Mar 2011
The forces acting on a ball in an air jet have been measured using simple equipment. Such measurements allow quite a precise, non-ambiguous description and understanding of the physical mechanism which explains the famous levitating ball experiment. (Contains 7 figures.)
