Projectile Launcher

Experimental equipment for the quantitative investigation of projectile laws:
• Vertical horizontal and angled launch, recording of flight trajectories depending on launch angle and projectile range.
• Three different reproducible launch speeds with continuously adjustable launch angles and constant height of trajectory at various angles since the launch point is coincident with pivot point of the cannon.
• Projectile is launched with almost no spin.
• With threaded holes on the bottom for attaching a photocell light barrier.

The encapsulated design and the use of spherical plastic projectiles ensure that experiments are safe. The launcher is attached to a table via clamp U10361 or can be used in conjunction with ballistic pendulum U10362.

Horizontal projectile range: 1.1 m, 2.3 m and 4.5 m
Launch angle: 0° to 90° continuously adjustable
Reproducibility at 45°: standard deviation less than 1%
Diameter of projectiles: 25 mm
Mass of projectiles: 7 g
Dimensions: 205 x 65 x 60 mm
Mass: 480 g
