[QUOTE="George Jones, post: 5477627, member: 31570"] If you have a unit normal to the surface, then: 1) take the dot product of this unit normal vector and the particle's velocity vector; 2) multiply the result of 1) by the unit normal vector. Together, 1) and 2) give the part of the particle's velocity that is normal to the surface. [/QUOTE]
