Time for ball to hit ground
Depends on height and initial velocity.
Debris impact timing
Determined by vertical motion analysis.
Rainbow boundary width
Set by deviation angles and dispersion.
Maximum rainbow height
Limited by the elevation angle of the apex.
Antenna ground contact time
Affected by fall and rotational motion.
Free fall time — factors?
Initial velocity, height, gravity.
Impact time — horizontal vs vertical?
Vertical motion determines impact timing.
Rainbow boundary — optical boundary?
Defined by maximum deviation angle.
Rainbow height — influenced by?
Sun position and observer angle.
Antenna fall — rotation effect?
Rotation alters contact timing.
