OPTIKA Ballistics Pendulum

OPTIKA Ballistics Pendulum

E8R06485

Product code: E8R06485

The ballistic pendulum allows study of the laws of conservation of energy and conservation of momentum in a perfectly inelastic collision.

This device is particularly sturdy because it is firmly fixed to its base and equipped with a state-of-the-art launcher.

The launching system is removable and suitable for verifying the initial speed of a projectile according to the laws of parabolic motion.

Dimensions:

  • Height: 300mm.
  • Base: 450mm x 170mm.

The Spring Constant of this apparatus is K = 0.22N/mm

  • Key Stage 4 Physics - Motion and Forces: Forces as Vectors: Recognise that forces have a well defined direction and are vectors. Explain the vector-scalar distinction as it applies to displacement, velocity and speed
  • A-Level Physics - Motion: Projectile Motion
