Question

Can anyone help me with this project? If possible, please answer #2 and #3 based on the diagram below.

1. Design a catapult that will launch a golf ball into a container 10 meters away. The set up is shown below.

2. When your catapult is finished you need to launch a golf ball and make measurements. You should be able to measure the following: time, change in height, and range. From this data you should be able to calculate the following: a.initial velocity in the y-direction b. initial velocity in the x-direction c. initial velocity (magnitude and direction) d. final velocity (magnitude and direction) f. maximum height e. acceleration of ball while being launched f. force on ball while being launched

3. On launch day you will need to launch your catapult for the class and try hit the target. Every one will get 1 try and then, depending on the number of catapults, perhaps 2 or 3. How close you are to the target should then be recorded in your report.

4. Your report should consist of a
page 1 - title page (1 point)
page 2 - diagram (or picture) with materials used and dimensions (in centimeters) shown on the diagram (3 points)
pages 3 & 4 - data & calculation page(s)(4 points)
page 5 - all calculated results in a nice table and a summary/conclusion paragraph (2 point)
