C++ Physics Simulations

Console-based physics experiments implementing numerical integration, terminal motion, and restitution dynamics in C++.

1. Free Fall (free_fall.cpp): Simulates gravitational acceleration and terminal landing from a specified height.
2. Bouncing Ball (bouncing_ball.cpp): Introduces a coefficient of restitution (elastic collision) and an energy decay threshold to simulate realistic bouncing until rest.

• Euler Integration: Discrete time steps (deltaTime) updating velocity and position vectors.
• Collision & Restitution: Inverts and scales velocity on impact to model kinetic energy loss.
• Encapsulated Results: Uses SimulationResult structs for clean data passing.
