our physics professor used to smack our knuckles for saying speed and not
velocity. What a grump. Scout "Capt. Mooron" wrote in message ... "Wally" wrote in message ... | Capt. Mooron wrote: | | To be accurate you would need the start and end coordinates.

Without the speeds that determination can neither be assumed nor denied. Of course the vector could be 0 degrees T. ;-) CM |
