    Is the trajectory of a ball with friction calculable?

    Good to hear this. I knew it was impossible for stokes' law, but thought that some sites explained it for Newton's. I didn't understand any of it, though, so I wanted to make sure. Thanks for confirming my assumptions.

    Is the trajectory of a ball with friction calculable?

    the program I wrote simulates the trajectory in realtime by dividing time in fragments and iterating. In each iteration, the simulation applies the acceleration the ball would experience to its speed and its speed to its location. For sufficiently small iteration lengths the simulation is...

    Is the trajectory of a ball with friction calculable?

    I have written a simulation for school that simulates balls being thrown under the influence of friction. To check if my results are correct, do you know if it is possible to calculate the trajectory? I can use the friction formulas of either stokes or Newton. Is it possible to calculate...
