Slowest Constant Speed (Plinko)

Picture
Tape the top and bottom of a meter stick to the wall and counter.  ​Add clothespins at an angle.  The clothespins will move, 4sure! Make readjustments each time you roll a marble.   The clothespins are like air molecules. This demonstrates how air resistance can cause terminal velocity (a.k.a. constant speed).

(We work in chairs at desks).  At the end we will move our projects to the counters behind our signs.
Note:  Everything fits on top of the counter.  You cannot build below the counter (like to the floor). Maximum height is the ring stand.
