Ball on 2 inclined plane, only calculation

Post by Trider »

Hello,

I want to write a small simple Programm wich shows you 2 Planes (inclined) and a Ball. I want to calculate the following :

The Ball should roll over the first plane. There where the second plane starts he continues the rollling on the second plane (the 2 planes are not paralell). On the second plane is a target Point wich he should reach as precious as possible. I have a constant Coefficient of friction and the ball weight. Now i want to give the ball a direction and a start-enegy so that he can start moving. I want to readjust these parameters as that often so that i come close enought to my target point.

Is this possible with this physic engine?

In the first step i dont want to use any grafics. I am only intrested in the calculations.
