The Effect Of Rocket Angle On Projectile Range Of A Tennis Ball

There are many approaches to this problem. The most common method is creating a separate air chamber using an empty soda bottle. A weight drops on this bottle to exert air pressure. This air pressure is then used to launch a projectile, adjusting the height of the weight as needed. Although easy, this method is too imprecise and will yield inaccurate results. To begin, it is needed to learn about how air pressure is created and the best way to achieve it. After

The howitzer was originally designed with a short barrel and large caliber resulting in the charge to be smaller so as not to add too much stress to the round inside. This meant that the howitzer was primarily a short range weapon system. The estimated ranges of the artillery pieces are as follows, the cannon fired with a maximum range of 2,000 yards and an effective range of 1,000 yards. The mortar fired at a maximum range of 1,400 yards with an effective range of 750 yards and the howitzer fired at a maximum range of 1,300 yards and an effective range of 750 yards.

Objective: Using a marble launcher, launch marbles from different angles with different forces to find the maximum height and the velocity as it leaves the launcher. Using different variables and results to determine how the different angles and amounts of force effect the variables. With this data show the effect the forces cause in 1-D and 2-D motion, as well as in the X and Y directions. This is done through kinematic equations and calculations.

The cannons shoot about 40 yards. There was many different kinds of cannon balls. One type is the shell. The shell was a solid iron ball used to destroy enemy things. Another type was the exploding shell.

A launch angle, in baseball, is the vertical angle measurement of the ball when it leaves a player’s bat. These measurements vary depending on how hard the bat contacts the ball.

In light of our final exam, the chuck a duck project, we are to learn about projectiles, trajectory, and the factors that affect these things.

In order to make our lives easier, we placed all objects on whole numbers. Our “hoop” was placed at 10 feet, our “person” was placed 15 feet away from the “hoop” and the vertex of our parabola was 21 feet high and 7 feet away from the “hoop”. We did this because it was one of the solutions where the ball could go into the hoop. Doing so, the h value was changed to 7 and the k value was changed to 21. The effect that has on the shot is, it changes the distance from the vertex to the hoop and k effects the height of the vertex. By changing these values it changed the path of the ball, making a successful

For example if the fulcrum was to be to close too the lacch it would most likely hit the ceiling. Also, if the fulcrum was too be too far from the launch it would also hit the ceiling. The best location for distance when launching the snowball was 3 fifths of the beam away from the launch. This location made it too where the snowball gets distance and some height so that the snowball doesn't hit the ceiling and comes back down and goes really far but luck wasn't on our side for the competition. 2.Explain how the speed of the effort and the amount of effort applied changed the flight of the snowball.

Firstly, measuring the exact distance of the ball travel can be a challenge especially when zoomed far away. Also it is hard to tell exactly where is the highest point of the parabola vertically because there are dots between the lines, it is tempting to measure from the top of the dot which can thrown of the result by one or two whole numbers. As this is a computer generated experiment, the results would be much different if experimented in real life. Although the Gizmo accounts for air resistance, it does not account for other factors like the direction of wind or how much/little air resistance since the forces of nature are always changing. If the experiment was done in real life there must be multiple trials and each trial will not be exactly the

“Fire!” I yelled as I pulled back the arm of the catapult, and quickly releasing it to have the marshmallow soar through the air. In this paragraph I will be writing about my catapult, and how far it fired, and also the accuracy, and finally how I built it. First, I had to construct my catapult we e were each given 16 rubber bands and 11 popsicle sticks. It was very challenging to tie the rubber bands to the popsicle sticks because there was a special way to tie the rubber bands, but I finally triumphed, I got all my rubber bands tied on. I figured out that if you tied the rubber bands to tight your catapult would start leaning and that’s what happened to mine, but if you tied them to lose your catapult would collapse. Second, I had to test

The purpose of this experiment was to determine if rubber bands or bungee cord would put more force into the launch of the catapult. The experiment was designed to test the hypothesis if either a bungee cord or rubber bands would help an eraser to launch further, because of more force.

(Melvin, Mangonel - “Physics of Catapults”) The speed and distance of the projectile depended on how much force the catapult applied to the projectile, and the momentum depended on the mass and the velocity of the projectile (dead diseased cow, or flaming

* The relevance of this experiment is similar to understanding a real airplane. Paper airplane models are derived from an actual plane these days. The design of an airplane has so much to do with distance, hang time, speed, and many other factors. Understanding the models I have chosen to make help me

The principle instability displayed by an outside undertaking is the wind. Since the experiments were all performed inside the same couple of hours, and the wind vacillates detectable, it is unquestionably a reason for instability in the information. Amid the trials, the wind felt around 5 to 7 mph toward the dispatches at some focuses, and afterward non-existent at different times. This may have represented a few irregularities, yet insufficient to have skewed the information fundamentally. There additionally was the human blunder in deciding precisely where the balls landed. In spite of the evidence that there was snow on the ground, and the shots made imprints in the snow, now and then it was hard to decide precisely where it landed as a result of impressions, and so forth. The last wellspring of noteworthy instability in the information was available in the setup of the launch for every trial. The dispatches could have been marginally conflicting because of the estimated way of the sling on the sling. The sling and balls were fixed up in practically the same accurate position without fail; however, slings are not correct, nor are the entire launch system essentially. In any case, none of these instabilities seemed to modify the information in any critical way judging by the relative consistency of the

METHOD: An air hockey table was set up and a video camera on a tripod was placed over the air hockey table. The camera was positioned so it was directly above the air hockey table facing downwards. The air hockey table was turned on and two near identical pucks were placed on the table, one at one end of the table and one in the centre. The puck at the end of the table was launched by
