Exploring Projectiles: The Free Fall Flicker
Students will build a simple device that launches a pair of small coins, one launched horizontally and one released from rest. Students construct the device and launch pennies, listening to the sound when they land to determine which lands first. Construction is easy and students will likely succeed in providing evidence to challenge a common preconception about falling objects.
