In this lesson plan for secondary physical science, students investigate energy transfer by placing a ping-pong ball on top of a racquetball and dropping them together. Upon impact, some of the energy of the racquetball is transferred to the smaller ball. Background information, printable data sheets, and assessments are also available. T
