This is going to be a very fun project for and you will learn a lot about the concept of two dimensional motion. Make sure that you focus on the reason WHY we the class chose the project and not about how FUN it is to build war machinery. The reason for the catapult is to be able to collect DATA and that is it. Stay FOCUSED on the real prize.
The teachers at A Plus Physics have created a wonderful project for us and I have modified the rubric to serve our classes requirements. Click on the link to A Plus Physics and they have a wealth of information for you there. Make sure to pay attention to the video that I have shown you in class to be able to calculate the information you need to fill out your report.
Have FUN!!!

- You will turn in an individual catapult project. You may work with others in developing your catapult, but you must complete your own Power Point, catapult and Lab Report. Use the tables and formulas on the Projectile Project above to show your data.
- Use the Lab Report format at this link.
- You will be presenting your project to the class, so please organize with me which day that you would like to do this.
