Part I consists of a study of the motion of a solid sphere when it strikes a liquid surface vertically. The shape of the air cavity formed is delineated and explained in terms of potential flow and the resistance experienced by the sphere in this stage is measured. These factors are found to scale on the basis of a Froude parameter. The pressure developed in the cavity is also measured and found to involve reverberations in the cavity of large amplitude. In Part II the impact forces on the sphere and other forms of projectile on entry into the liquid are studied and compared with theory. The mechanism and forces involved when a sphere ricochets after entry at oblique angles are also discussed.
