funky data


Some data for you to look at.  It's interesting that the height of the balls as a function of time (top plot) is roughly sinusoidal, acceleration due to gravity produces a constant change in velocity and parabolic shape.  

Looking from the top (middle plot) it is much more like a triangular profile, owing to the constant velocity of the ball once it's left your hand.

The bottom plot is a funky 3D plot of the balls.
