Assignment: Simulating a ball throw using Processing

Go through the various Processing demos. Once you are familiar with the demos then attempt this assignment. You
will need to use projectile motion equations for this assignment. The equations are in the Appendix.

What you need to do is simulate a projectile motion of a ball thrown for a pre-determined velocity from a pre-
determined direction. These will be parameters you will assign at the start. The output should be the location of the
ball drawn as a circle from start to finish and the related time elapsed at each of those points as shown in Figure 1.
You will be given a bonus if you do the extra step of bouncing after hitting the floor. Save your image as a .jpg file and
submit so that it can be peer reviewed and graded,

NOTEI The acceleration due to gravity J 9.81 m/s2. However, coordinates on a screen are in pixels. So use a
conversion factor of, for example 200 pixels/m. Then convert all meter values to pixels with this conversion.

At start of the program let time t0 = millis(). Thereafter time t = millis()-t0. In the draw loop determine t, and then
calculate (x,y) and draw a circle at that point and write the corresponding time value, t as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Sample output. Your plot should show from start of throw to the point at which the ball hits the floor. The
above figure shows only part of the projectile.

Appendix: Simple projectile motion equations

If the initial velocity in x direction is Vy0 then

Horizontal distance x J Vx0 t where t= time elapsed

Vertical distance y J Vy0 t W ½ (gt2)

Vertical velocity at point (x,y) Vy J Vy0 + gt

' By now you have had enough practice on


Processing, so this is the assignment
that you need to do. You need to simulate
a ball being thrown or ball being kicked,
at a certain velocity and at a thrown angle.
And you have to find the time
corresponding to each location
the ball is in. And the final map should be
with the time as you see
here and location as well. You need to have
