Abstract:

A projectile is an object which had an initial velocity and then follows a

specific range determined entirely by gravity. We can determine the initial

velocity from the motion of the horizontal-projected ball. Consequently, using

the initial velocity,

The purpose of this lab is to study the properties of projectile

motion. From the motion of a ball projected horizontally, the initial
velocity of the ball can be determined from the measured range.
For a given initial velocity, the projectile range will be measured
for various initial angles, and also calculated by applying the
theory for motion with constant acceleration.

The motivation behind this lab is to concentrate the properties of shot

movement. From the movement of a ball anticipated on a level plane, the

underlying speed of the ball can be resolved from the deliberate range. For a

given starting speed, the shot range will be measured for different

introductory edges, and furthermore computed by applying the hypothesis

for movement with steady increasing speed

. Using the force table, we can detect the resultant vector which is opposite

to angle between applied force angle. In this experiment, we have number of

applied forces, and we add equilibrant force FE to make system become in

equilibrium, then we determine the resultant vector. The force table is

planned in circular shape, depend on angles and pulleys, and technically

easy to use.

Objective:

The purpose of this experiment is to determine the resultant vector

manually, prove it graphically, and prove it analytically.

Conclusion:

We have done the first experiment (2 forces) perfectly, but we have small

error in the second experiment (3 forces). However, We had proven our

experimentally result, graphically and analytically.
