Homework Statement
Question:
What are some ways in which one can determine the velocities of a projectile experimentally other than the multi-flash camera in a dark room?
Background info:
I'm working on an essay about air resistance upon a shuttlecock. Now, before I start doing any maths, I need some raw data on the motion of a shuttlecock when hit by a badminton racket. The problem is, I'm a beginner and I don't have or know the equipment suitable for determining the velocities of the shuttle cock. Now I've thought about doing this in a darkened room with a multi-flash camera, but that'd be kind of hard since the range for the shuttlecock is longer than any dark room I'm available to. Especially if I also want to show where the net and the court is so I could also analyse the experiment/data with respects to badminton as a whole. So I'd need to move the multi-flash camera to a badminton court at night. And that a lot of other problems arise.

v=d/t!?
F(d) = (1/2) C(d).A.rho.v^2

Yeah, I'm looking for one. :grumpy:
