: Oh ugh, I just know there's a way to use all this to discover more about the
: Equipment, but my Physics just aren't working well. Let me think it over
: and see if I can devise some numbers for this.
Alright, here we go, first with acceleration of each object:
We can devise it easily enough by dividing the height reached by initial velocity to give us time taken by each object to reach said height.
We can use this number to find each object's acceleration by the Spartan by dividing the change in the velocity by the change in time, which gives us a nice round number of 20 m/s^2. This is about what each one comes to when rounding with significant figures, so we'll call it a constant for the Spartan.
So we have the acceleration of each object at 20 m/s^2

Acceleration is equal to The Amount of Force/Mass. Since it's a constan acceleration, we can simplify the formula to be:
20 m/s^2=F/m
Now the problem comes where we can't measure either force or mass in the game, and thus we can't determine the other variable. That's where I stop, but if someone has some neat idea of solving either of these problems we could potentially find how much mass these objects have.
