    identify the forces acting on the ball at any given time‚ there are three forces‚ and they include: the vertical component of drag (F_(drag y))‚ the horizontal component of drag (F_(drag x)) and force due to gravity (F_g). In the horizontal direction‚ the forces sum up to be: ∑▒F_x =-F_(drag x)=-1/2 pv_x^2 C_D A In the vertical direction‚ the forces sum up to be: ∑▒F_y =F_(drag y)- F_g=1/2 pv_y^2 C_D A-mg The net-force acting on the ping pong ball is F=ma according to newton’s second law which states
