- Investigate the independence of the horizontal and vertical motion
- Use the photogates to measure launch velocity
- Knowing the launch velocity, predict the landing point when a ball is launched horizontally from a table top
- Knowing the launch velocity and launch angle, predict the landing point when a ball is launched at an angle on a lab table
- Knowing the launch velocity and launch angle, launch a ball through a horizontal or vertical hoop
- Investigate projectile range as a function of launch angle
- Determine which launch angles give the same range
- Determine which launch angle gives the maximum range
- Investigate the repeatability of the launcher
- Use the launcher, a video camera and the video features of Logger Pro to observe the launch path
- Given a specific launch distance, calculate the launch velocity needed to hit the target. Use the photogates to set the device to that launch velocity and test your prediction.
