The tennis player practices by hitting the ball wall at A. The ball bounces off the court surface at B and then up to its maximum height at C. For the conditions shown in the figure, plot the location of point c for values of the coefficient of restitution in the range 0.5 lessthanorequalto e lessthanorequalto 0.9. The value of e is common for both A and B. For what value of e is x = 0 at point C. and what is the corresponding value of y? Divide the ball trajectory into 3 segments: From O to A, from A to B and From B to C. write the kinematic equations for the trajectory motion for each segment. Study the impact at A and B. Use Matlab to solve the resulting equations and plot the results. Submit a professional typed report that includes the problem description, all analysis, equation, Matlab code and the needed plots.

Hello, I\'ve recently been tasked with creating a program for a course regarding plotting projectile motion with drag (air resistance). The problem i have run into is regarding overwriting of variable (Vx and Vy) but whenever i replace them and put them back into the function so they don\'t overwrite themselves the program either does nothing or crashes matlab. since i don\'t have matlab at home i\'ve been using freelab and convert back and forth as i work at uni and home.

Another problem i have had is that i am unable to plot the y axis for the function without drag.

so this is the latest and furthermost i have got, this was done in freeMat 4.2 so some small changes need to be done to make it work in matlab. Other things i have yet to do is add the y axis for projectile motion without drag and a legend for the graph. if you spot anything odd or can tell me how to stop getting those variables overwriting themselves i would be very thankful.
