Lecture 17: Intro to Physical Simulation (11)

Now that I think of it a lot of physical movements can be represented by springs. For example, maybe jumping can be simulated by this equation.

I think jumping would be a little more complicated since we'd need to factor in gravity and other forces involved. It'd be similar to how a constricted spring, aimed upward is released such that is expands and doing so bounces into the air. Then back onto the ground in a constricting motion.
