Answer to Question #240703 in Physics for Nia

Question

1. Compare the measured range to the calculated range.

2. Do the kinematics equations see to work in practice? If not, why?

3. Is it the fault of kinematics or due to some problems with the procedure?

Answer 1

1. The measured range is shorter than the calculated one.

2. The kinematics equations seem to work in practice, although output a bit greater result.

3. This is the fault procedure (we applied equations created for vacuum in a gaseous medium).
