Hey there Freckled Farmer!
I’m just right up the road from you in Greencastle, IN. It’s good to have another Festivarian so close :cheers
Are you driving out to T-ride?
peace,
Val
P.S. Never been to Bean Blossom because I’m usually on my way to TBF that weekend
Well what do we have here???
Mrs Valerie…Hmmmmmmmmmmmm…Greencastle huh?
Never heard of it…
Actually I was born and raised at
916 S. Locust St
Greencastle In
46135
Been in Bloomington 7years
I ended up here after traveling in my van for 3 years touring with several acts.
Small world huh?
I(ts tough when something is on the ground (terminal Velocity) ususally its used for things in the air?
in order to find the terminal velocity, a drag coefficient (Cd) is required. Examples of approximate drag coefficients include: laminar flow on flat plate (0.001), aircraft (0.03), smooth ball (0.1), bullet (0.3), car (0.3), cyclist or skier (1.0), brick (2.1).
The density of air at sea level is ~1.5 kg/m³), and the strength of gravity is 1 g (or 9.80665 m/s²).
We need to make a snowball then find a drunk cop who will let us use his radar detector.
Then we can make different sized snow balls and have our “Telluride Tequila Snow Ball races” I think more importantly for safeties sake is how big will the snow ball be at the bottom of the mountain?
the snowball might be very large, considering its source point. I wonder what effect the altitiude might have on the ultimate ternimal velocicity. But then, since we we are talking about June, would the density of the hurled material have some effect on the actual terminal velocity of the thrown object?
Gentleman, the one factor you have both over-looked is asked in the following question:
Is the material in question being hurled by a Banjo Player or a Mandolin Player? The velocity of the hurled object will be affected by the counter balance in the musician’s other hand or restriction of arm movement placed upon the hurling arm by any given neck strap of said intruments.
Would anyone else like to continue the discussion should picks or, worse yet, finger picks become involved?
Let me add, without bias (and please don’t get your feelings hurt or call me):
If one were thinking of making the attempt to measure the velocity of an object being hurled by Ryan Adams, don’t bother. The damn thing just won’t fly.
We’re coming from the UK too. In a moment of giddiness last night we decided, sod it, let’s go. So you won’t be alone in the “Inadequately Equipped” corner.
