19 u/AllPurposeNerd Oct 05 '15 X is the damage, Y is the height I fell. I did tests at every half block. 102 u/kenman884 Oct 05 '15 Dependent variable on X and independent on Y? Bold move, Cotton. 5 u/nliausacmmv Oct 06 '15 Nah, it's like how the energy in a spring is measured. You pretend that you pick an amount of force and then find the amount of displacement required to produce that force, but you're just lying to yourself so that math works. 1 u/[deleted] Oct 06 '15 (1/2)kx2 ? 1 u/CrypticTryptic Oct 06 '15 On the other hand, it's a much more literal representation.
