    Chart is based on formula: Y mi/hr = 60ft * (1mi/5280ft) * (3600sec/hr) * (1/Xsec) = (40.909 / X) mi/hr where Y = average ball speed (mi/hr) and X = travel time (sec) Technical note: most SVG code was automatically generated by the "Line charts" spreadsheet linked at User:RCraig09/Excel to XML for SVG. Minor additions and adjustments were made ...

    The notch may be a hole completely through the bar or just a depression in it. The ball is pulled out of the notch by gravity when the device is slowly raised to an angle of about 20°, rolling onto the green at a repeatable velocity of 6.00 ft/s (1.83 m/s). [6] The distance travelled by the ball in feet is the 'speed' of the putting green. Six ...

    Conceptual illustration of ball speed and rev rate during the skid and hook phases, until they converge upon entering the roll phase. The initial ratio of ball speed to rev rate—the ratio at the time of release—is called the release ratio. Rev rate increases (motion of yellow arrowheads) until it matches the decreasing ball speed upon ...

    Then, at a speed of 13 400 000 m/s (30 million mph, 0.0447 c) contracted length is 99.9% of the length at rest; at a speed of 42 300 000 m/s (95 million mph, 0.141 c), the length is still 99%. As the magnitude of the velocity approaches the speed of light, the effect becomes prominent.

    The USBC and World Bowling promulgate bowling ball specifications. USBC specifications include physical requirements for weight (≤16 pounds (7.3 kg)), diameter (8.500 inches (21.59 cm)—8.595 inches (21.83 cm)), surface hardness, surface roughness, hole drilling limitations (example: a single balance hole including the thumb hole for "two-handed" bowlers [3]), balance, plug limitations, and ...

  9. Exit velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_velocity

    For most of baseball's history, there were no commonplace methods to quantify how hard-hit a batted ball was — the only aspect of the ball's speed being tracked was how fast the pitcher threw it, measured using various evolutions of radar guns. In 2015, MLB introduced Statcast technology to all 30 of its ballparks, in part to track exit velocity.
