Part 1:
Directions: Go to the projectile motion simulation and set it up so that you are shooting a pumpkin from the cannon, WITH air resistance (drag coefficient at 1). Try using a variety of angles, initial speed, and mass (leave the diameter alone). Each time you conduct a test, enter your data in the form below. Conduct as many tests as you can in the time allowed.
After the lab, we will analyze the compiled class data.
Part 2:
Try to hit the target using the Projectile Motion Simulation link by following the instructions and answering the questions on the lab sheet.
