Analyzing Projectile Motion Lab Exercise

1. The document describes a lab experiment to analyze the relationship between the vertical and horizontal displacement of a projectile launched with a constant horizontal velocity. 2. The method describes marking horizontal distances on paper, launching a projectile from a clamped launcher, and measuring the vertical displacement at different horizontal marks on a target. 3. The results will be analyzed to determine the proportionality and relationship between the vertical and horizontal displacement of the projectile.

PROBLEM: APPARATUS:

Lab Exercise Analyzing Projectile Motion

What Is the relationship between the vertical displacement and the horizontal displacement of a projectfle fired with a specific and constant horizontal velocity? two paper strips (1.5 m long) target holder metre stick carbon paper plumb line projectile launcher clamp

Launcher
Target holder

Line

THOD:

1. 2. 3. 4.

Mark off the following horizontal distances on the paper strip that goes on the floor. 0.0 cm, 20.0 cm, 40.0 cm, 60.0 cm, 80.0 cm, 100.0 cm, 120.0 cm Clamp Projectile Launcher to the desk. Tape the paper strip from Step 1 on the floor so that the 0.0 mark is at the point of the plumb bob. Tape your target paper strip to the target holder. On the target paper mark on the height from which the ball is launched. Then place the carbon paper over top of the paper strip on the target holder. Place the target at the 20.0 cm mark. Fire the projectile. Then set the target at the next horizontal displacement and fire again. Measure the vertical displacement for each horizontal displacement and display your observations In an appropriate table. DetermIne the proportionality between the two variables. Make a new table that is necessary to find the correct relationship between the two variables. DetermIne the relationship between the two variables. State the relationship between the vertical and horizontal displacement for the projectile in this lab.
