Steps: 1. Make a hole near the lip of the cup wide enough to pass a piece of string through. Make an identical hole on the other side. Attach a piece of string to make a loop. You should be able to hold the cup like a basket. 2. Place a small item such as a rubber in the cup. 3. Making sure you have enough space, swing the cup around your head and see if the rubber does not fall out. 4. If you are brave enough you can try the experiment with a small amount of water in the cup. In the video below is a demonstration. You do not need to make the board to place the cup on if you do not have the materials. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kilEN7zgTZo Explanation: The force keeping the ball/water in the cup is called centripetal force and is similar to gravity.
