Re: Nerf ball starting at 12m/s 45 degree angle ending at 8ft 6in w/ air resistance

Taken from Section 4 - The Game

<S02> Muzzle Velocity - No ROBOT may throw a ball with an exit velocity of greater than 12 m/s (26.8 mph).
As a reference, a ball traveling at this velocity when leaving the ROBOT at an angle of 30º from
horizontal with no spin will travel approximately 35 feet. A robot that violates this rule will be
considered unsafe per <S01>.
