Right. Then the angle is such that you could calculate it. But it still depends on the trajectory, so that’s not wrong, for whoever down voted…

Lmao you’re so confused
victorz@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
About what am I confused? How about you present an argument instead of just down voting? Please elaborate, thank you.

Idk what you think trajectory means but they know the angle the steel cap shot off at and they know the angle and distance from which the high speed camera viewed it. There is no room for ambiguity, they calculated the minimum speed. There are no outside forces that could have curved the shot, either. An 900kg object going any number of kilometers per second won’t be effected by windspeed for example.
You’re just making an ass of yourself.
