Swipe to AddForce to RigidBody in specific direction.

Hello everybody,
I'm trying to make a ball be sent away in the direction you swipe after your finger has travelled 40 pixels using the public float swipeRange. Unfortunately my ball just sits still and don't react to my swipes. Any ideas?
Appreciate any help.


public class Swipe2 : MonoBehaviour
{
public float swipeRange;
private Vector2 currentPosition;

Vector2 startPos, endPos, direction; // touch start position, touch end position, swipe direction

[SerializeField]
float throwForceInXandY = 1f; // to control throw force in X and Y directions

[SerializeField]
float throwForceInX = 50f; // to control throw force in Z direction

Rigidbody rb;

void Start()
{
rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{

// if you touch the screen
if (Input.touchCount > 0 && Input.GetTouch(0).phase == TouchPhase.Began)
{

// getting touch position and marking time when you touch the screen
startPos = Input.GetTouch(0).position;

//before it was } here. not at end

if (Input.touchCount > 0 && Input.GetTouch(0).phase == TouchPhase.Moved)
{

currentPosition = Input.GetTouch(0).position;

Vector2 Distance = currentPosition - startPos;
// getting release finger position

if (Distance.magnitude > swipeRange)
{
//endPos = Input.GetTouch(0).position;
// calculating swipe direction in 2D space
direction = startPos - currentPosition;

// add force to balls rigidbody in 3D space depending on swipe time, direction and throw forces
rb.AddForce(-direction.x * throwForceInXandY, -direction.y * throwForceInXandY, 0);

// Destroy ball in 4 seconds
Destroy(gameObject, 3f);

}

}
}
}
}
