Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

    • his mass is 33% more and the ball goes 23% faster? Momentum is mass x velocity iirc.

    Do you understand why this statement is wrong?

    You’re mixing the mass of the person throwing the ball with the mass of the ball.

    • his mass is 33% more

    This would matter if he was flying himself at the batsman.

      I’m not trying to be difficult, I just probably don’t understand. It’s been at least 30 years since I did physics.

      There’s only 3 things in the equation?

      Velocity = Momentum/Mass

      momentum is the product of the mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity, possessing a magnitude and a direction

      The ball gets its momentum from the mass and velocity, so size and speed of the bowler?

      Add in levers from long whippy limbs and you get the fastest ball for the size of bowler?

      Do biological males have longer whippier limbs? If not, then I don’t understand how a bowler of the same size and weight of either sex would have an advantage, assuming identical levels of access to playing and coaching from a young age.
