Re: Struggling with stored energy

Thanks for the help. The idea is that a cylinder pulls pack on a compression spring that then we release, impelling the ball with force under the equation


(force released in the spring) - (resistance from cylinder)

where (resistance in cylinder) is limited by the pressure
