This simple but precise launcher is versatile and easy-to-use for projectile motion studies!
The Mini Projectile Launcher projects steel balls at ranges suitable for use on the benchtop or from the bench to the floor. Set any required launch angle from 45° downwards to straight up with the protractor and plumb line. Three different spring tensions give three repeatable launch speeds with ranges of 1m, 1.5m, and 2m. A magnetic piston ensures that the ball does not touch the side of the barrel and launches straight every time. A cable release gives a smooth triggering to prevent jerking. The unit can be fixed to a bench with a clamp (not included) or can stand on its own. Two 16mm steel balls included.
