3. Introduction to Projectile Motion x = x o +v xo t y = 0 z = z o + v zo t – ½gt 2 x -> displacement in x direction y -> displacement in y direction z -> displacement in z direction g -> gravity constant v -> initial velocity

5. Physical Examples  Roberto Carlos 1997 Roberto Carlos 1997  Basketball Basketball

6. Fluid Dynamics Real world is not a vacuum Drag force and lift force F l =-.5p|v| 2 C l Lift coefficient Depends on spin Additional curvature of trajectory

8. ODEs of Projectile Motion x -> displacement in x direction y -> displacement in y direction z -> displacement in z direction k d -> drag coeffecient g -> gravity constant k l -> lift coeffecient γ -> angle between spin axis and ground plane (x,y plane) v -> initial velocity

9. Runge-Kutta Numerical Method  Essentially a modified Eulers Method Weighted Averages  Method used by Mathematica to solve ODEs  For all three equations in the ODE x(t 0 )=0 y(t 0 )=0 z(t 0 )=0

10. Runge-Kutta Cont. y’= f(t,y) y(t 0 )= n 0 t 0 =0 Timestep= h k 1 =hf(t 0,n 0 ) k 2 =hf(t 0 +h/2,n 0 +k 1 /2) k 3 =hf(t 0 +h/2,n 0 +k 2 /2) k 4 =hf(t 0 +h,n 0 +k 3 ) n 1 =n 0 +(k 1 +2k 2 +2k 3 +k 4 ) 6

11. Mathematica  Due to complexity of the system of ODEs we used Mathematica to solve and model this system

12. Conclusion  Gained understanding of the effect of the Magnus Effect on the flight of a soccer ball  Found ODEs for motion of a soccer ball  Used Mathematica model to solve the ODEs of flight of a soccer ball  Modeled famous free kicks such as Roberto Carlos 1997 using Mathematica
