BTW, not sure a bowling comparison is the best as the last 15 feet of lane is dry. That and today's balls are designed to slide on oil, then stick like glue on dry.
Just tried the simulator. I got more break if I decreased speed and left the spin the same. When I left the speed the same, I got more break if I increased the spin. In each run, I only changed one variable. Time seemed to affect the break.
I can learn! Thanks for the explanation. I've tried to google this stuff before, but most sites use equations and terminology that I can't follow.That is correct. The equations for the arc are exponential and with respect to time. Since the distance is finite the time become dependant on the velocity. Higher velocity means less time. More break occurs.
