Ballistic Cart Accessory

012-05460A

Incline the track (see Figure 7.1) using the table clamp and rod. Be careful not to choose too high
an angle because the cart will reach such a high speed that it will crash at the bottom. For any
angle you choose, be sure you catch the cart at the bottom to keep it from derailing and crashing
to the floor.

Put the photogate trip bracket in a position where it will drop the ball after the cart has begun to
move.

Start the cart at the top of the incline, hang the ball on the drop rod, and release the cart. The ball
will land in the cart.

CAUTION! Remember to catch the cart!

Repeat the demonstration for a different angle.
