Question

A group is performing measurements on a projectile launcher with three settings. This group attempts to determine the initial velocity for the medium range setting by measuring the range and time of flight. They perform several trials and obtain the following values for the initial velocity: 3.39, 12.66, 12.68, 12.64, 12.65, and 12.65 m/s. What conclusion can be drawn from this set of data? What is the best estimate of the launcher's initial velocity on the medium setting? A group is performing measurements on a projectile launcher with three settings.

What is the best estimate of the launcher's initial velocity on the medium setting?

Explanation / Answer

3.39 velocity means the range would have been less

12.66, 12.68, 12.64, 12.65, and 12.65 m/s means the range would have been in middle with best of 12.65 m/s
