Dart Shooting Lab Report

Improved Essays
Title: 2-D Kinematics
Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to determine and relate the distance of a nerf-gun with a dart shooting out of it at an angle of 45 degrees. In addition, find the displacement and average acceleration of the dart as it shoot out of the nerf-gun.
Hypothesis: If the dart is shooting out of the nerf-gun with choosing a small angle, then the distance will become larger, because if shooting at a right angle the dart is going to go straight up and then fall, but having an angle less than 90 will give a larger distance.
Procedure:
• Find a spot on the floor, further from the place you are aiming at, and find a book or an object that is sturdy to keep your protractor stable.
• Using a protractor and your nerf-gun,

    Building 1143 is a challenge in of itself with over 32,000 square feet of area, 25 entries and exits, 12 corridors, two auditoriums, 38 classrooms, 54 offices, large amounts of open space in four common areas, and most of the walls of the building are actual windows. A positive aspect is there are many areas, such as the classrooms, that are optimal to establish a barricade between individuals and the active shooter during lockdown procedures. Additionally, with 25 entries and exits there are plenty of options for personnel who want to escape an active shooter situation. These positive features of building 1143 are important for all individuals to know and could result in lives saved, however, the layout also presents a complex challenge to mitigate or deter an active shooter threat. Features of building 1143…

    In this short paper I will go over my thoughts on the article provided for this week’s article summary, Diagnosing Hunting Rifle Accuracy, Part One, American Gunsmith May 2015, by Wendell Dwight Deaner. I think I’ll just begin by saying that this was one article that I feel will really help me in my personal life. I’ve had some serious problems getting some of my small caliber weapons to maintain accuracy, so I’ll be looking to implement some of what I learned from it to solve my issues. Mr. Deaner opened this article by making several points regarding what should be considered when it comes to getting a rifle shooting accurately, and a customer’s expectations. it is very important to keep in mind what you must work with……

    Does an atlatl lengthen how far a dart goes compared to hand throwing the dart? Purpose The purpose of the experiment was to find out if the atlatl truly does increase the distance that a dart can travel, compared to just using an arm, on average. If it does increase the distance, than this knowledge could be used to understand how using the atlatl affected the way paleolithic Europeans survived, as there would have likely been less accidents killing prey, as they could be farther away, but more deaths between themselves if they fought against one another.…

    Observations from the Firing Range I decided to take a friend and try out a firing range that had some extensive renovations completed recently. Previous visits were a disappointment, to say the least, but the new management had promised a new look and new experience. It was a quasi-private range that required membership and residency in the village to use. Residents could bring guests for an additional fee. Part of the property owners dues that residents paid to the village were used for the renovations and subsequent upkeep.…
