i need to take a picture for physics that demonstrates anything about physics. i was wondering if you guys had any ideas? i was going to take a picture of the bean in millenium park with the reflection of the chicago skyline on it, but it was already done.
 
Preperation: Find a really tall balcony or building or something. Get a long rope or chain that you can hang down from the balcony. The rope should be long enough so that it just touches the ground when you're holding the other end. You need a ball, too.

Step 1: Start by holding both ends of the rope so the middle of it is hanging down off the balcony.


Step 2: Drop one end of the rope (hold on to the other end) and the ball at the same time.


Step 3: The rope hits the ground before the ball.


Step 4: Be amazed.
