Constants and Measured Values


Gary Dyrkacz of "A Theorectical treatment of paintball dynamics" measured
and averaged the mass of three manufacturers of paintballs. I used his measured Mass in my own formulas

Mass of a Paintball = 3.2g

Since my velocities are in fps I used the conversion

1 gram = 6.85217*10^-5 slug/g

The Acceleration of Gravity in english Units I Used

g=32 ft/s^2

Target Velocity 300 fps
