This report will investigate how free-hanging objects act under the influence of gravity, in order to observe an aspect of a physics engine for a computer animation studio. To prove the concept, the shape of a hanging rope of length 205cm, supported at two ends that are 100cm apart was applied and mathematical functions were applied to it to determine the best model to duplicate the formation. The functions were analysed and employed to form possible relationships that correspond to...

Introduction Do you ever wonder in one thousand years what will be happening? Like would we be living on the moon. Imagine you floating jumping and having fun. You would be thrown around with no gravity because you would weigh nothing. That may not happen, but did you know without gravity none of that would happen. This essay will show you how Nasa is trying to manipulate gravity, what gravity does to space and the most important people who studied...
