1. Safety instructions

• This instruction sheet is concerned mainly with the

ballistic pendulum. You should also read the in-

structions for the projectile launcher U10360.

• To check whether a projectile is located in the pro-

jectile launcher and the spring is cocked, only use

the observation holes at the sides. Do not look into

the barrel from the front. Risk of injury!

• Never aim at people!

• Protective goggles should be worn during the ex-

periments.

• The projectile launcher should always be stored

with the spring loose and with no projectile in the

barrel.

2. Description

• The ballistic pendulum is for experiment-based

determination of the launch velocity of a projec-

tile when it leaves the projectile launcher. It is also

possible to determine trajectories when the pro-

jectile is launched horizontally or at an angle.

Launch heights of 5, 10, 15, 20 or 30 cm can be

selected easily with the aid of the drilled holes.

• Thanks to the extreme lightness of the pendulum,

the experiment can be performed using compara-

tively safe plastic projectiles instead of steel balls.

Experiments involving inelastic collisions (quanti-

tatively) and elastic collisions (qualitatively) can be

evaluated. The velocity of the projectiles deter-

mined from trajectory and pendulum experiments

typically agree to within about 3%.

• Extra weights allow various pendulum travels to

be investigated for constant speeds.

3. Operation and maintenance

• First the ballistic pendulum is screwed to a stable

bench by means of its clamp. The projectile

launcher is then screwed to the back plate

behind either in a horizontal position in front of

the pendulum as in Fig. 1 or as shown in Fig 3.

Tip: if the workbench is not stable enough, it may

be that when the pendulum swings to its maximum

extent and then swings back, it may jog the appa-

ratus when striking the projectile launcher, caus-

ing the swing pointer to be shifted out of line. If

this happens, the pendulum should rather be

stopped by hand.

• Projectiles should always be loaded when the sp-

ring is not under tension by placing the sphere in

loosely through the front of the plastic cylinder
