      You did it wrong. Your measurements are at 10 . But your drop actually comes off ramp at around 7-8. Raise the ramp so the 10 is at bottom and the math will be more close to reality.

      I think this is the reason A significant percentage of religious people say they don't believe in science, because they don't understand the need for all these complicated equations when they can generally get close enough, well, believe it or not, if you have a vague idea of what you're doing, you don't need these complicated equations. It's pretty obvious to anyone who's messed with a bouncy ball that not accounting for stuff like spin is going to result in more bounces than what this guy is telling us, also, most people don't need pinpoint precision when it comes to stuff like throwing an object

    • @77thTrombone
      @77thTrombone 2 місяці тому

      Right. Specifically, the ball bounces both in _x,y_ and in rotation. The ball will bounce further along _x_ when landing on a forward roll, and less when landing on a backwards roll.
      _I think:_ theoretically, the forward & backwards bounces should balance out to net zero effect, but my guess is that the energy absorption during rotational bounce is appreciable and unaccounted for in the workup calcs.

    • @77thTrombone
      @77thTrombone 2 місяці тому

      I suspect a roller barring ramp (however that might work - maybe like a gentle air gun, rather than a ramp) would lead to *_less accurate_* predictions, specifically more actual bounces than predicted.
      Justification: entering the first bounce, the ball has no rotational kinetic energy. In the first bounce, the x velocity component will impose rotation, meaning a transfer of _x,y_ KE into rotational KE. This transferred KE will never be restored to the _x,y_ frame, so it's a net _x,y_ loss.

    • @colin-me
      @colin-me 2 місяці тому +2

      maybe but conversely the ramp used in the video imparts a rotation, which in contrast to your example, adds energy to the movement along the x axis starting with the first bounce. Resulting in fewer bounces in a given distance than expected. You can imagine if you could have ramp that some how rolled the ball in the opposite direction it would take away energy from the movement along the x axis resulting in more bounce over a given distance. There for a system that moves the ball forward with no rotation should be the closest to a prediction based on data from watching the ball bounce just on the y axis

    • @77thTrombone
      @77thTrombone 2 місяці тому

      @@colin-me I think you're close. I think the ball's rotation coming off the ramp should "match" the ball's x velocity.
      Ideally the ball should be frictionless on the bouncing plane. Perhaps a billiards ball on glass (😵 - very very thick glass) would get close to ideal)

    Over makes sense because your calculations only took into account vertical CoR, not horizontal CoR or angular CoR. A rotating object, even with a perfectly straight trajectory, still requires a horizontal and angular CoR to predict its behavior. Steve Mould just recently did a video on this topic.
