Task List


This blog will include a set of high speed videos and analysis questions suitable for introductory and engineering physics courses.

As a first video, use the pasco projectile motion launcher and create a 420 fps video of the ball fired horizontally at each of the spring strength settings. Analyze the video to determine the initial velocities of the projectile launcher and the acceleration of gravity.

Post the resulting video along with images of your X, Y position vs time graphs, and X, Y velocity vs time graphs and results for acceleration and initial velocity as a blog post.
