Re: HELP NEEDED WITH PHYSICS

here is what I can give you, this these spread sheets are made to do a couple different things

this first one has 3 sheets

sheet 1: given a launch angle and velocity the sheet outputs the flight path of the ball, you can play around with things here to get what you want, does not include drag
sheet 2: you tell this sheet a launch angle and a target height and it outputs the required launch velocity for a bunch of different distances.
sheet 3: this one does the same thing as sheet 2 but it accounts for drag

second set also has 2 sheets, but only the first one applies to your problem

here you input launch angle and launch velocity and it outputs the path of a projectile, however this one accounts for drag. note this one is a work in progress, I cannot 100% guarantee it's accuracy, but I know it is close, and also the calculations for max height, time in air, and final x position are not currently working, but the trajectory calculator is
