TRAJECTORY APPARATUS KIT

[AVAILABLE WHILE STOCKS LAST ! ! ! ]
•  This rugged, compact device allows students to clearly visualize and quantify projectile motion.
•  A steel ball is launched repeatedly from the same place on a ramp and strikes a recording paper on a target plate that is moved horizontally each time.
•  Trajectory shape and properties marks are transferred to the background graph paper.
•  Comprises:
Plotting board 360 x 430mm  |  2x Wooden supports  |  Adjustable aluminum launcher with a stop  |  Aluminum target plate  |  Steel ball  |  Graph paper  |  Target paper (precut).

(Wikipedia excerpt: ..."...A trajectory or flight path is the path that an object with mass in motion follows through space as a function of time. In classical mechanics, a trajectory is defined by Hamiltonian mechanics via canonical coordinates; hence, a complete trajectory is defined by position and momentum, simultaneously. The mass might be a projectile or a satellite.[1] For example, it can be an orbit — the path of a planet, asteroid, or comet as it travels around a central mass.

In control theory, a trajectory is a time-ordered set of states of a dynamical system (see e.g. Poincaré map). In discrete mathematics, a trajectory is a sequence ( f k ( x ) ) k ∈ N {\displaystyle (f^{k}(x))_{k\in \mathbb {N} }} of values calculated by the iterated application of a mapping f {\displaystyle f} to an element x {\displaystyle x} of its source.....")
