Reflection
An vector moving at speed c at angle ø has the x component ofand the y component of
. It collides with a point on a circle (y, z).
How do I establish the reflection angle of the vector hitting the circle at this point, so that the object 'bounces' off the tangent of the circle?
I'm not certain of what you mean. If the reflection "bounces" the object in the direction tangent to the circle then the object must be moving along this tangent line. Since I doubt the question is this, some clarification is needed.Originally Posted by hasekura_rokuemon
