help with prac (1 Viewer)

[dawma88]

hey, i need help with this prac, as we did not do it and not in my textbook.

Perform a first-hand investigation, gather information and analyse data to calculate initial and final velocity, maximum height reached, range and time of flight of a projectile for a range of situations by using simulations, data loggers and computer analysis

thanx

...i dun really think u do it, haven;t done it at my school. I think its basically asking u to know the calculations for projectile motion.

This is a mandatory prac. There are a few ways of doing it.
Question of the 2003 HSC has one example

Pasco has another example

It's not calculations there's a separate dot point for that...

I know one school that actually performed this experiment
with air-pressure and coke-bottles, but how would we actually
write up the practical?
