Marble either a plastic or steel marble my group selects the marble meter stick.
Vertical marble launcher diagram.
Use the graph to the right for questions 6 through 8.
Stopwatch might be needed for part 2.
Cart eventually lands at point z.
Place the cpo launcher near the edge of a student desk.
Gravity being a vertical force causes a vertical acceleration.
Shown in the diagram to the right.
Vy v sin α time of flight.
The launcher can launch at angles from 0 horizontal to 90 degrees vertical.
This angle will be the angle θ of the initial velocity v o.
The vertical velocity changes by 9 8 m s each second of motion.
The marble launcher has different angle settings from 0 to 90.
The object s vertical displacement as a function of time.
Attach one photogate to the marble launcher so that the marble breaks the light beam as it comes out of the barrel.
A marble launcher shoots a marble horizontally from the height of 0 2 m above a horizontal floor.
Procedure for the horizontal launch to find the device launch velocity.
On the other hand the horizontal acceleration is 0 m s s and the projectile continues with a constant horizontal velocity throughout its entire trajectory.
For this experiment you will use angles.
Lockheed martin is a leader in providing vertical launching systems and munitions for the navy with products such as the mk 41 the single cell launcher the extensible launching system and the vertical launch anti submarine rocket.
Projectiles are objects upon which the only force is gravity.
Put the timer in interval mode and connect the photogate to input a.
Let s sum that up to form the most essential projectile motion equations.
Projectile motion lab purpose determine the initial velocity of ball launched horizontally predict and verify the range of ball launched at an angle equipment.
Compare the time it takes for the cart to travel from x to z.
C setting up the marble launcher c 1 1.
Vx v cos α vertical velocity component.
T 2 vy g range of the projectile.
The angle can be changed by untightening the large knob on the rear of the launcher arm of the marble launcher and rotating the launcher arm to the appropriate angle then retightening the knob.
Use this diagram to answer questions 28 through 30.
Use the diagram to the right to answer question 11 14 it represents a cart that is rolling along a tabletop at a constant velocity and a ball that will chop et the instant the cart rolls off the cclgc of the tabletop.
