Ballistic Pendulum, The Ballistic Pendulum contains everything needed to measure the momentum of a projected object., Each

Details

This renowned experiment combines a student's understanding of position, velocity, momentum, acceleration, conservation of energy and momentum, potential and kinetic energy into one comprehensive experiment to determine the muzzle velocity of the ballistic launcher experimentally. Once conducted, the results can be verified using photogates and theoretically derived. The kit includes everything shown in the image: ballistic launcher, rigid arm pendulum, angle back drop, steel ball, and release mechanism.
