Time of Flight Pad
Recommended for College and High School. Interface and software sold separately.
Use the Time of Flight Pad to precisely measure how long a projectile has been in motion.
Description
The Time of Flight Pad is used with the Vernier Projectile Launcher and a Vernier interface to determine the launch speed of a projectile, along with the time the projectile is in flight.
Time-of-flight measurements allow students to see just how kinematic calculations work in real-world applications.
