The effects of air resistance on ball bearings launched in the Physics classroom are small but measurable. This paper describes a method for modeling the effects of both quadratic and linear air resistance. This method allows students to more accurately predict where their projectiles will land. More importantly, it allows students to explore multiple explanations for the motion they observe.
