Technion Students Test Physics with Monster Yo-Yos

Yesterday, the Technion held the largest yo-yo competition ever; not in terms of participants put in terms of the size of the yo-yo.
 
In a contest to demonstrate laws of physics and test engineering students' abilities to apply theory to reality, 14 teams built oversized yo-yos.  The rules of the contest were simple.  Each yo-yo would be attached to a 20 meter (65-foot) long rope and raised to the top of a 30 meter tall yellow crane, where they would be wound up.  The yo-yos would be dropped from there.  The winning yo-yo would rebound at least 20 meters -- the length of the rope -- and win 10,000 shekels.  Second and third prizes were worth 5,000 and 3,000 shekels.
