About this document
Horizontal Projectile Motion Lab by Yunkai Day is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document describes an experiment to measure the launch speed of a ball using a projectile launcher and photogates. Students will apply concepts of two-dimensional kinematics to predict where the ball will land after being launched horizontally. Preliminary questions are asked about projectile motion by having students flick pennies off a table to observe which lands first and how speed and height affect travel time and distance. Objectives are to measure launch speed, apply kinematics, and account for
