    1-055-WaterFallingInCone-ModelingScenario
    We offer an opportunity to model the height of a falling body of water in a right circular cone (funnel) and to estimate an appropriate parameter based on data collected from a video of the experiment found on YouTube.

    4-039-FallingDarts-ModelingScenario
    we develop, solve, and analyze a second order differential equation model for free fall incorporating air resistance. Students solve the model using two methods -- reduction of order and separation of variables, and method of undetermined...

    3-070-FallingInWater-ModelingScenario
    We model a small canister with ballast to keep it vertical as it falls through water in a graduated cylinder filled with water. We suggest several models in terms of resistance due to the media and estimate appropriate parameters.
