Air drag and Magnus force (off = vacuum) Lock aim on the target reticle Goalkeeper in goal

Drag the shooter on the court, or drag the yellow reticle in the goal to aim. Space or the ball fires. The dashed line is the predicted flight; the grey line is the same shot in vacuum.

Model: ball 0.425 kg, 0.095 m radius (IHF size 3), drag coefficient 0.47, Magnus lift coefficient C_L = 1/(2 + v/(rω)) (Goff and Carré), floor restitution 0.72. Goal 3 m x 2 m. The goalkeeper reacts after a delay, guesses the crossing point with an error that shrinks with skill, then moves at a limited speed. A stylised teaching model.
