Khurram Wadee ✅<p>A simple model for it might be to assume it is a <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/linear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linear</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.org.uk/tags/viscous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>viscous</span></a> fluid offering resistance proportional to the velocity of the projectile, i.e. R = -k.v, where v is the velocity vector and k is a constant which dictates how viscous the fluid is.</p><p>Happily, this model has exact solutions so I didn’t need to do any numerical integration. Here are four different cases, including the ideal case k = 0. The others are k = 0.1, 1 and 10, with the k=1highlighted.
