Project Hint

Pssssstttt...Physical Science folks....here's a little video that might help you analyze the data you collect for your garden hose projectile motion experiment. Think about what the video is showing you and the physical reasons behind these patterns. Consider time in the air, vector components of the motion (vertical vs. horizontal), vector components of displacement (horizontal vs. vertical), etc. How does your data match up? Assume, as for your data, that the initial velocity is equal for each trial (launch angle).
