Philip Harris Projectile Launcher
Philip Harris Projectile Launcher
Product code: HE1008599
Product Description
An ideal piece of apparatus for investigating the motion of projectiles. The apparatus can easily be clamped to a bench/desk (clamp provided) and the angle of projection can easily be adjusted through 90°.
The angle is read by means of a plumb line that hangs past an angle measurer that is attached to the unit. Firing of the unit is obtained by releasing a spring-loaded rod that acts against a large ball bearing (included).
- A visual demonstration of projectile motion.
- Key Stage 4 Physics - Forces and Motion: Weight and gravitational field strength. Explain that weight is an effect of gravity which can vary with the gravitational field strength g (measured in N/kg) and recognise and predict phenomena that depend on weight and non inertial mass and distinguish between the two. Forces and fields: electrostatic, magnetic, gravity.
- A-Level Physics: Projectile Motion
- Ensure the area around the Projectile Launcher is kept clear when in use to reduce the risk from flying objects.
