Its note

Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 264.7 Hz, 20 cents sharp of C4. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it

A ping-pong ball, used in table tennis, is a hollow plastic ball 40 millimeters across that weighs less than 3 grams, about as much as a small coin. The name ping-pong comes from the sound it makes on the bat and the table.

Tap it and it is flicked up, then bounces on and on, each bounce a little lower and quicker, with a tik for every one, until it buzzes to a stop. A light, springy ball keeps most of its speed at each bounce. Pick a white or an orange ball in the Splash tab.
