Hello there,
I’m trying to write an algorithm to constantly decelerate a spinning wheel with velocity of 10 so that when the speed reaches 0 the wheel would have rotated 360 degrees from the position where it started decelerating.
At the moment I’m using a “friction” value to slow down the wheel velocity so that the wheel rotates exactly 360 degrees. This value though, is found empirically and it works only for that amount of degrees, instead I would like to find an equation from where I can retrieve that friction value for any number of degrees.
Here is the pseudo code I’m using for every frame:
if(decelerating) {
rotationVelocity *= friction;
}
wheel.rotation += rotationVelocity;
How can I find that friction value?
Thanks!
