In 1964, US Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart famously opined in an obscenity case that it was exceeding difficult to define obscenity, “but I know it when I see it.”
Apparently you are better versed on this subject than I. I yield the floor.

I believe, and you will correct me if I am wrong, that this formula is only accurate if we ignore the resistance of the air, or the friction from passing through the atmosphere, or whatever the applicable technical terms are.

OK Snaqwells, you have to stop using such simple language. You know on this forum we use highly technical terms like thingie, dohicky, thingamabob, and stuff like that. If you can't enhance your vocabulary you will never make it on this site!:D

And as the ball comes to rest in the dribbler's hand, those reduce to 0. They only have an effect when the ball is moving (or the air is moving relative to the ball).:D
