Experiment 9: Bombing Run (Computerized)
EQUIPMENT NEEDED
– Ballistic Cart Accessory (ME-9486)
– 200-gram mass and mass hanger
– Dynamics Cart and 2.2 m track (ME-9452)
– Photogate and photogate bracket
– Drop Rod Accessory (ME-9487)
– Computer
– Paper cup (for catching ball)
– Plumb bob
– Physics string (SE-8050) (NOTE: Stiff string is required.) – Meter stick

Purpose
In this experiment, the distance from the target that a bomber must release the bomb is calculated
and verified.
Procedure
➀
Prior to the beginning of the experiment, perform the Setup procedure.
➁
Align the track with the edge of the table.
➂
Position the drop rod so that as the ball drops, it will miss the table and fall to the floor.
➃
Position the photogate trip bracket near the middle of the track.
