Assume that players A and B play a match where the probability that A will win each point is p, for B its 1-p and a player wins when he reach 11 points by a margin of >= 2The outcome of the match is specified by $$P(y|p, A_{wins})$$ If we know that A wins, his score is specified by B's score; he...

Hi, The previous question was with a singe slope across one axis, this question involves a slope across bot the x-axis and the y-axis. I believe the difference is large enough to open a new topic. I am sorry if I misjudged that

A golf ball is launched at a speed v and launch angle, β . At some point the ball is located on the rim of a hole. The view from above looks as follows: Vector v can be expressed in two components, v_v and v_y:$$v_y = v \cdot \cos(\beta)$$ and $$v_x = v \cdot \sin(\beta)$$ If we look at...

A golf is launched at a speed v,f and launch angle, β,f. The slope of the green is equal to φ. At some point the ball is located on the rim of a hole. The side view (a) and overhead view (b) looks as in the attached image.According to the author of the [paper][2] "The Physics of Putting" the...
