Re: Horizontal Bar: Vertical Velocity

And one more question. I think in the video it was said that the "maximum vertical velocity cannot be greater than 10ft/sec". If so, what if the robot launches the projectile at an angle, and not straight up? Is only the vertical component counted? The suggested way of measuring velocity (with the camcorder) would probably do just that.
