We will do this by calculating a muzzle velocity (or initial velocity) for a steel ball projectile launcher using two different methods, then calculating the gravitational constant (g) from these velocities.
The objective of this lab is to investigate projectile mo-tion, first when a projectile is fired horizontally, and then when a projectile is fired from a non-zero angle of elevation. Theory Projectile motion is an example of motion with a con-stant acceleration, with an initial velocity in any direc-tion (horizontal, vertical, or at an angle).
the projectile is fired at a non-zero angle of elevation (part 2). Theory Projectile motion is an example of motion with a con-stant acceleration, with an initial velocity in any direc-tion (horizontal, vertical, or at an angle). An object is considered to be a projectile when the only force acting
The purpose of this experiment is to measure the initial velocity of a ball that is fired from a projectile launcher (spring gun) by measuring its horizontal and vertical displacement.
The purpose of this experiment is to predict the horizontal range of a projectile shot from various heights and angles. In addition, students will compare the time of flight for projectiles shot horizontally at different muzzle velocities. This lab experiment specifically deals with the independence of horizontal and vertical motion.
In some cases an object moves with a constant velocity (zero acceleration). In others—such as the motion of a cart pushed along by the constant force of a fan unit as in Lab 2 or the falling motion of a ball pulled. INVESTIGATION 2: EXAMINATION OF TWO-DIMENSIONAL MOTION.
In this lab you will study the motion of a freely-falling projectile, namely a small plastic sphere. Projectile motion, for our purposes, is the motion of an object that has been launched and then is subject to only the force of gravity and the force of air friction.
