Physics Video!

This weekend, our physics project was due. We initially wanted to show ourselves as human projectiles. However, on the Logger Pro program, we saw that it was not really possible to correlate the points to the body parts and the results would not be as accurate, as the points would not create a clean arc. So we used a ball as our projectile, and myself as the height from which the projectile traveled. From there we calculated the initial and final velocities, how long it would take for the ball to reach the water, as well as the horizontal distance that the ball traveled. We solved these using the kinematics equations from quarter one and the conservation of energy formula. Included below is one of the videos that we decided not to use, and the final video that we ended up using.
