Late start?

This site talks about it a bit. For this experiment to be presented in a worthwhile fashion you'll need to discuss the vector compontents of the
forces that apply.

If you want to do a better than average job, compare the end velocities of a marble (spehere) and a ring or hoop that wieghs the same as the marble.
They will be different. Your job is to figure out why.
