To the previous comments I'll simply add that what you're looking at is *not* an elliptical arc, but a parabolic arc.

Hi all,<br />
<br />
I'm trying to code the &quot;bouncing movement&quot; of a ball for a program.<br />
<br />
What I need is the formula from which I can get an exact point (position of the ball) in an elliptic arc. (I couldn't yet find it)<br />
<br />
Could anybody please help?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advanced,<br />
