Physics 2305 Laboratory Equipment List

Lab 3: Projectile Motion

Transition notes:

  1. The track needs to be moved back to allow room for this lab. The parts holding the track to the table can stay.
  2. The following items from the previous lab (2305 lab 2) can stay:
    • 850 Interface
    • Large Universal Clamp
  3. It is easier to construct this lab as you go. I tend to do it in this order:
    1. Put out and construct the mini-launcher and photogates.
    2. Place the 2 meter stick on the launcher to tell you where to put the clamp for the bin.
    3. Get out and attach the bin to the tables.
    4. Finish putting out everything else.

Equipment List:

On the TA Tables:

Full table setup of projectile motion with the catching bin on the right and launcher on the right.

This is what your table should look like once set up. Objects subject to Left/Right Reflection.

Three pairs of googles, the time of flight pad, white paper, carbon paper, the 30 cm ruler, the cocking rod, and the bag of steel balls laid out neatly ont he table.

Here are the loose items used in the lab.
