The rack 58 is curved on an arc whose center lies in the axis of the pivot bearings 19 and 20, or the axis about which the pendulum swings. It is graduated and preferably numbered every five notches.
Theory.
Measurement of velocity by a ballistic pendulum is based on the principle of con- "ervation of momentum, the latter being delined as the product of mass and velocity of a moving body. The fundamental principle of conservation of momentum is that the momentum of the two masses is the same before and after impact.
here a projectile is embedded in a pen duluiu the velocity before impact is zero and after impact according to Newtons second law of motion the common velocity of the pendulum bob and the projectile must be such that the momentum of the combined masses is equal to the momentum of the projectile before impact. This relation may be indicated by the following equation written. in two ways:
where M is the mass of the pendulum, m the mass of the projectile, V the velocity of the pendulum and projectile immediately after impact, 4) the velocity of the projectile before impact.
The impact causes the pendulum to swing and its center of gravity rise a distance h,
the kinetic energy at impact must equal the potential energy when the pendulum reaches its highest point. This relation may be written as follows:
V J2gh (Eq. 3.) By measuring the height it, weighing the masses M and m and substituting these values in Equation 2, V may be ascertained, then substituting M, m andV in Equation 1 will give the value of o. 7
The results thus obtained may be checked by data obtained from the flight of the roject-ile independent of the pendulum. uring the time interval 6, the projectile will move horizontally through a distance D='vt, and during the same interval under the force of gravity it will fall a distance d gt (Eq/l).
Suppose the projectile, after a flight of t seconds, strikes a horizontal plane at a distance (5 below its initial position. If the point where it struck and its initial position areknown, the horizontal and vertical distances between these points respectively are the values of D and (Z in Equations 3 and 4. By eliminating t and substituting the measured values of D and (Z, c is found to be From Equation 4, t, the time of flight can be found.
In the first part of the experiment the ball 30 is placed on the end 44 of the rod 43 and together they are pressed to the right in Fig. 1 until the trigger catches the collar 50. The bob is set at rest in the solid line position in Fig. 1, the trigger is pulled, the projectile is thrown to the left taking the position within the bob shown in Fig. 2 and swinging the bob to the dotted line position shown in Fig. 1. This should be repeated several times and the position of the point of the ball 62 noted. The average will accurately represent the mean height to which the center of gravity of'the combined masses has swung. Measuring h and k and subtracting will give it for use in Equation 3.
For the second part of the experiment swlng the bob to the position shown in Fig. 1 and, after setting the propelling device, pull the trigger and permit the ball to trace the trajectory 70 as indicated in Fig. 5. Perform this several times and note the given distance, then measure (Z and D for use in Equation 5.
The pivot bearing 20 is provided with a knurled head 71 which may be readil screwed in and out of the flange 18 and :1 jacent to the head it has a shoulder 72 adapted to contact with the flange when the bearings are in proper adjustment. The
pivot bearing 19 is provided with a screw driver slot 73, or the like, by which the initial adjustment can be made. The space between the flanges 18 receives the enlargement 23 with sufficient clearance to permit the latter to be removed when the pivot bearing 19 alone has been withdrawn. This construction enables the student to replace the pendulum after weighing, and set the hearings in proper adjustment by merely screwing up the pivot bearin g 20.
The mast let is cylindrical and its lower end is received in a cylindrical bore 74 in the base 10. One wall of this bore is equipped with a screw 75 having a conical point 76 and the mast has a conical socket 77 to cooperate with the point. This construction permits the mast to be removed for shipment, or storage, and replaced in proper adjustment by merely inserting it in the socket and setting up the screw 75.
