Hello
I am going to build a waterslide for my grandchildren butI need to figure out the angle of the ramp to accommodate a range of weightleaving the ramp in order to achieve maximum height and distance.
So say the hill has a 30 degree slope and the run is 50feet to the ramp and the person weighs ? pounds and achieves ? speed at takeoffhow high and how far will they travel if the ramps is ? long and has ? angle....... assuming of course very little friction on the run to the ramp.
thanks
