Abstract

A sphere with a uniaxial through-hole of 6mm with a sphere diameter of 25.4 mm and density of 1360 kg/m3 was launched vertically upward toward the free surface of calm water. The effect of initial angle of the uniaxial through-hole was investigated from the time the sphere passed through the calm water surface until it attained its maximum displacement position. When uniaxial through-hole of the sphere and the water surface are horizontal, a slight rotation occurs in the sphere that rises in the water. As the initial angle of the uniaxial through-hole increases, the sphere over the water surface deviates greatly from the central axis.
