A curveball is thrown overhand with the holes on the right side (for a righthanded
pitcher). The ball from the pitchers view point should look like this:
The forces on the ball are gravity (32 ft/s^2)and the force created by the uneven pressures
created by the holes on the ball. The estimated vector equlivent is shown here.
The red vector is the total acceleration of the ball (How the ball will move).
