The Mini Launcher (ME-6825B) fires a steel ball into the foam catcher of the Ballistic Pendulum Accessory (ME-6829) mounted on the Rotary Motion Sensor. The Rotary Motion Sensor measures the angular displacement of the pendulum and it is plotted in real-time in PASCO Capstone.<\/p>\n<p>There is no need to catch the pendulum at its maximum height because the angle is continuously measured. Using the analysis tools in PASCO Capstone, students can find the maximum angle.<\/p>\n<p>Using Conservation of Momentum and Conservation of Energy, students can determine the initial speed of the ball as it leaves the projectile launcher. The initial speed of the ball is confirmed by using two photogates to time the flight of the ball for a short distance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-12 mb-2\">\n<h4 class=\"h4\">Concepts<\/h4>\n<ul class=\"condensed \">\n<li>Modern approach to a classic experiment<\/li>\n<li>View graph of entire pendulum swing<\/li>\n<li>Conservation of momentum<\/li>\n<li>Conservation of energy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h4 class=\"h4\">What&#8217;s Included<\/h4>\n<ul class=\"condensed product-detail-included mb-0\">\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/sensors\/pasport\/ps-2120\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PASPORT Rotary Motion Sensor (PS-2120A)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-apparatus\/mechanics\/projectiles\/me-6825\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mini Launcher (ME-6825B)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">2x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/sensors\/pasport\/me-9498\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Photogate Head (ME-9498A)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-apparatus\/mechanics\/projectiles\/me-6821\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Photogate Mounting Bracket (ME-6821A)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-apparatus\/mechanics\/projectiles\/me-6829\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mini Ballistic Pendulum Accessory (ME-6829)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-supplies\/clamps-rods-and-stands\/se-7285\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Large C Clamp (6 Pack) (SE-7285)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"include-qty\">1x<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"include-desc\"><a class=\"font-weight-normal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/products\/lab-supplies\/clamps-rods-and-stands\/me-8736\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">45 cm Stainless Steel Rod (ME-8736)<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Product Experiments<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pasco.com\/file_downloads\/Downloads_EX_Exper\/EX-5511A-Ballistic-Pendulum.zip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ballistic Pendulum Experiment<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The complete solution for studying the velocity and angular displacement of a pendulum using PASCO sensors &amp; equipment.
