Throwing an object at the same speed but different angles defines an ellipse via its maximum height • The red trajectories take air resistance into accountpic.twitter.com/WJ3awB7pQk

There's this image I can't find now on Wikipedia, It had a falling of trajectory of nth root of n with e being the topmost height / maxima line of it.
hmm .. there is an exponential in the drag force but i don't see this immedietely

I just referred that because there's some sort of form similarity between the maximal heights. I'm sure there's something going on, but clueless as to figure out how at the moment.

Are you referring to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steiner%27s_calculus_problem … ? I’d say the ellipses appearing from the maximum height of the trajectory can be shown via differential equations and kinematics, but I don’t believe it has anything to do with this and e
