Shoot-the-target Accessory
ME-6853
Introduction
The PASCO Shoot-the-target Accessory, in combination with a projectile launcher, demonstrates that accelera-
tion is constant for all objects in free-fall regardless of initial velocity. A target is initially suspended near the
ceiling, and a projectile launcher is aimed directly at it. As soon as the projectile is shot from the launcher, the
target is released. The projectile hits the target as it falls, proving that both objects accelerate downward at the
same rate.
