Squish
Ball Drops

The
squishy ball
used for these photos is about the same size as a racquetball, but is
much easier to deform and is not as elastic. If
one compares photos of racquetballs
and water
balloons with
those of squish
balls, one will find that they deform in much the same way.
Perhaps these kinds of deformations are common for any
object filled with freely-moving particles enclosed by an elastic
material or surface. The
difference in the collision systems is mainly one of time. The
collision generally takes longer for the more easily deformed
objects.
