Projectile motion

Maximum range as a function of the angle of inclination for different initial velocity v0: Curve 1 v0 = 5.3 m/s Curve 2 v0 = 4.1 m/s Curve 3 v0 = 3.1 m/s

Principle

measure Dynamics experiment - available 2014

A steel ball is fired by a spring at different velocities and at different angles to the horizontal. The relationships between the range, the height of projection, the angle of inclination and the firing velocity are determined.

Projectile motion with measure Dynamics

Tasks

P2131180

1. To determine the range as a function of the angle of inclination. 2. To determine the maximum height of projection as a function of the angle of inclination. 3. To determine the (maximum) range as a function of the initial velocity.

Ballistic Unit Function and Applications For demonstrating projectile motion and for quantitative investigation of the laws of projection, in particular for determining the range of a projectile as a function of the projectile angle and the initial velocity of the projectile.
