hey everyone
I'm in year 12 physics, and we have a project revolving around the physics of sport
i selected golfing, and my initial aim is to investigate the inaccuracy associated with predicting the aerodynamic motion of a golf ball (max height, max distance).
i selected this mainly because it means i can build a pneumatic air cylinder capable of firing a golf ball at approx. 30m/s :)
for me, that's pretty awesome.
ok, so i was talking to my physics teacher and he asked me how i was going to account for the wind factor on the day of testing. i don't have any ideas as to how i can control this.
so, does anyone have any ideas on this?
i AM fully prepared to change my aim/investigation provided i get to shoot 'stuff' XD
