Materials needed: ( 1 ) Spring-loaded cannon; ( 2 ) ruler; ( 3 ) timer The goal will be to determine how far a model cannon’s projectile will travel. First, we will theoretically determine the muzzle velocity ( vm ) of our model cannon. Position the cannon horizontally upon a table. Measure the vertical distanceContinue reading “KINEMATICS: How Far Will a Fired Projectile Travel?”
