This is in response to Reed's question in earlier thread. Thought problem 1: physics
Suppose I am going to do a rigid body simulation. I put one box (box1) on a plane, at the origin and hold another box (box2) suspended a meter above the plane nearby. I release box2 at time t=20 and it bounces, perhaps collides with box1 then eventually comes to rest. I snap an image of the rest state of the sim. Now I repeat the entire sim after first shifting everything (boxes and plane) by 10m. The boxes and plane are in exactly the same relative position as before. I drop box2 at t=20, let it bounce and snap an image of the sim when it is at rest. Question: will the two images of the two experiments show box2 in the same rest position relative to box1? _______________________________________________ vos-d mailing list vos-d@interreality.org http://www.interreality.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vos-d
