- We pitch a ball into the air, the ball follows (straight line/arc) path.
- Assuming that air resistance is negligible, what force is acting on a projectile during its flight? In what direction?
- The horizontal distance (range) a projectile travelled depends on the (launch angle/lunch speed/both)
- A ball is launched by a spring loaded launcher at an initial speed. We can measure the initial (launch) speed in the lab by:
- Launch the ball straight up and measure the maximum height it reaches before dropping down.
- Launch the ball straight up and measure the time it takes to return to the initial position.
- Both methods can be used.

Determining Initial Velocity Through Projectile Motion Introduction In this lab we encourage you to play with toys! You are going to assemble the Hot Wheels Launcher shown above. The orange Hotwheels car launcher (Not to be confused with the Daredevil Stunt set's yellow motorcycle launcher) is a variable speed launch system with four settings. This makes it ideal for experiments to see the effects of velocity on projectile motion. You are then going to launch a car with various initial...

A small, spring-loaded cannon launches a golf ball from level ground with an initial speed vi at an angle θi with the horizontal. The golf ball lands a horizontal distance R from its launch point. The highest point the golf ball reaches during its flight is a distance R/12 above the ground. In terms of R and g, find the following. (You may ignore air resistance.) (a) the time interval during which the golf ball is in motion t =...

A spring-loaded launcher is used to shoot a ball of mass 1.50 kg straight up in the air, as shown in (Figure 1). The spring has spring constant k 667 N/m. If the spring is compressed a distance of 25.0 centimeters from its equilibrium position y = 0 and then released, the ball reaches a maximum height hmax (measured from the equilibrium position of the spring). There is no air resistance, and the ball never touches the inside of the...

A ball is thrown straight upward in the air at a speed of 15.0 m/s. Ignore air resistance.
A ball is thrown straight upward in the air at a speed of 15.0 m/s. Ignore air resistance. a) What is the maximum height the ball will reach? b) What is the speed of the ball when it reaches 5.00 m?c) How long will the ball take to reach 5.00 m above its initial position on the way up? d) How long will the ball take to reach 5,00 m above its initial position on its way down?

Explore A baseball is thrown from the top of a tall building with an initial velocity of 10 m/s from a height of h= 11.5 m above the ground. Find its speed when it reaches the ground (a) if its launch angle is 37°, and (b) if it is launched horizontally. Conceptualize As the baseball moves upward and to the right, the force of gravity accelerates it downward. The vertical component of its velocity decreases in magnitude until the baseball...
HotWheels Launch Angle
HotWheels Launch Angle IntroductionIn this lab you are going to use the HotWheels Launcher and a ramp. The orange Hotwheels car launcher is a variable speed launch system with four settings. This makes it ideal for experiments to see the effects of velocity on projectile motion. You are going to launch a car with two different initial velocities at an angle and measure how far it lands. From the input data you can determine the initial velocity. Items needed: Measuring...

A ball is thrown straight up at speed in the presence of gravity. (a) Ignoring air resistance at first, what is the maximum height the ball reaches? (b) Now include Newtonian (quadratic) air resistance, with drag coefficient c. Letting the direction point upwards, write down the equation of motion (be careful with the signs). (c) Solve the equation of motion to find v(t)(= (t)). Remember to check that v(0) = . (d) Without integrating anything yet, calculate the time at...

Consider a golfer here in Oregon, at exactly 45.0O latitude, hitting a golf ball toward the hole, 275 m due south. The balls initial velocity is 48.0O above the horizontal. The golf ball is initially headed straight toward the hole for a holein- one, and would be a hole-in-one, except, the Earth is rotating! a) Assume negligible air resistance and the tee and hole are at the same level. Solve the projectile problem and find the time the ball is...

THE EXPERIMENT The speed "." of a ball as it leaves the spring gun will be measured by projecting the ball horizontally (0-0) from a table top at a distance H above the floor. The gun is then elevated at a known angle 8. The position of the target is calculated using the measured value of v. calculated time of flight, and the equations of motion. A successful prediction with the projectile hitting the target means that the following concepts...
