Ap physics 1 students completed a difficult but practical marble launcher lab on tuesday oct 7.
The lab consisted of several different portions.
For this experiment you will use angles from 0 to 80 degrees.
Students determine the accuracy and precision of the marble launcher experiments.
The equations were not very accurate as to where the marble landed.
Use a strip of masking tape on the floor to make sure that the marble launcher is consistently placed in the same location.
After each trial measure the horizontal distance traveled by the marble.
Place the marble in the launcher and pull the spring handle to the 4th slot this compresses the spring the same each trial.
