A juggler juggles three balls in a continuous cycle. Any one ball is in contact with one of his hands for one fifth of the time. (a) Describe the motion of the center of mass of the three balls. (b) What average force does the juggler exert on one ball while he is touching it?

Solution Summary: The author explains the motion of the center of mass three balls moves in a small, closed loop, making three revolutions for each ball. The juggler's average force exerted is five times the weight.
