Slinky

Apr 08, 2009 13:10

one of the guys in my row just got a text message saying that if you lay a standard slinky out straight it would measure 87 ft. well my other coworker just happens to have a slinky on his desk...now we thought of stretching it out...but decide we would wait till he got back. Instead of stretching it out we measured the height of the slinky and the thickness of each ring. we then concluded that the slinky only measures 61 ft however this is not a standard slinky and the rings appear to be smaller than that of a standard slinky....
