Minecraft Science: TNT Kinematics

Nicely Done Wy, yeah i could tell it was so much stronger, if only nukes in tekkit would be 4,000,000x as strong as regular TNT, or if they would introduce Nitroglycerin. Also, if you really wanted me to i could show you how to make Nitroglycerin. all you need is a fat, nitric acid, and sodium hydroxide.

Thanks, and I don't need nitroglycerin at this time. I'll keep you in mind next time I want to have a real life Minecraft adventure.

Tonight, I'll be doing another Minecraft Science experiment. Anyone have any ideas?

Did that already.

To do this, I dug a 2 block deep hole, placed a stone slab at the bottom, and crouched, to get my eye height as close to ground level as possible. Next, I threw the enderpearl straight into the air. I did frame analysis, and discovered that it took 2.2 seconds to reach peak height. I then used this equation:

vf = vo + a * t

Substituting the known values, I got:

0 = vo + -14.4622 * 2.2

0 = vo - 31.81684

vo = 31.81684 m/s

This means that a player throws an enderpearl at a speed of 31.81684 m/s.
