Title1D60.65 - Water Trajectory
Objective

This simple and straightforward demonstration can be used qualitatively to illustrate various properties of projectile motion.​

StatusAvailable
Assembly Instructions

The demonstration is set up as shown in the above figure. The large, wooden demonstration protractor should be elevated by a block (57x73mm) just outside the metal trays. A piece of rubber tubing (3/8" OD, 1/4" ID) with a length of 1/4" OD hollow glass tubing partially inserted in one end should then be clamped to a table stand using a variable-angle clamp. Adjust the height and position of the hose so that its pivot point (the variable angle clamp) corresponds to the reference cross on the protractor. Place a series of metal trays on the lecture table so that they will collect the water from the hose. If the demonstration is being done quantitatively, a 2-meter stick can be appropriately placed on the table to measure the range of the trajectory.
