    The movie shows a very strong water jet generated by a pump to circulate the water in a pond.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Instructions:\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Make sure the water jet is narrow but powerful. Keep the nozzle pointed upward at an angle.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Observation:\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

    The water jet forms a parabolic arc.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Tip:\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Catch the jet in a large bowl, or experiment outdoors.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    • \u00a0<\/span>Assuming a constant acceleration due to gravity, the trajectory can be derived theoretically. With the ” method of small steps”, a numerical approximation method, it can also be simulated well.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • \u00a0<\/span>A “throwing machine”, which you can also build yourself with a little effort, can bring a projectile on a parabolic trajectory to the target.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Suitable for holistic physics, i.e. for an interaction of theory, simulation and experiment.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Particularly suitable for inspiring boys, as they often have a special interest in throwing and shooting.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1580,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[936,912,918,921,927,858],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1206","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-12-gravitation-en","7":"product_cat-4-velocity-acceleration-inertia","8":"product_cat-6-free-fall-fall-with-air-resistance","9":"product_cat-7-horizontal-projectile-motion-projectile-motion-with-incline","10":"product_cat-9-energy-forms-conservation-of-energy","11":"product_cat-a-mechanics","12":"","13":"woocommerce-text-align-left","14":"woocommerce-image-align-center","16":"first","17":"instock","18":"shipping-taxable","19":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/1206","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1580"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1206"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=1206"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=1206"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=1206"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
