Tennis Ball Cannon: Project Based Learning Project: February 2008
http://jlargecannon.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 12, 2008. According to Boyle's Law, pressure is inversely related to the volume of a gas, but at a constant Kelvin Temperature(Celsius 273).In addition to this (p1)(v1)=(p2)(v2), and as pressure gains the volume drops, or as the volume gains the pressure drops.(p1 ), (v1 v)(v1 ), (p1 v). P=Pressure in Atmospheric Pressure(atm). T=Temperature in Kelvins(K or 273 Celsius). This painting of a cannon from 1326, suports our idea of pressure build up; the pressure will build up in a larger ar...

Tennis Ball Cannon: Project Based Learning Project: Reflection
http://jlargecannon.blogspot.com/2008/02/reflection_12.html
Tuesday, February 12, 2008. Here are some pictures of the ball we attempted to launch. As you can see, the ball was burnt. But unlike other cannons, ours, did not deform. This was one of the smaller cannons, it didn't prove as effective, due. To the jagged edge at the top of the cylinder. This cannon proved to be the best with a result of shooting the ball around 20 feet. Although this cannon proved to be such a good one, it compressed easily to the heat. Small enough so enough force would be emitted.

Tennis Ball Cannon: Project Based Learning Project: Procedure
http://jlargecannon.blogspot.com/2008/02/procedure.html
Tuesday, February 12, 2008. We looked up other cannon designs and we put together our former knoweldge to come up with our own design. We used our knowledge of cannons and pressure/volume relationship to come up with sketches. First we marked our tennis ball tubes with the dimesnions we came up. With, in our skecthes. Next we cut the tubes. After we cut the tubes, we taped the tubes together. Pictures of the Finished Project. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Cannon Project: Construction

Monday, January 28, 2008. First we cut slits down both sides. Afterwards we wrapped both ends together to form a funnel, taping this together. Finally, we taped the top chamber on, and the stand, giving us our final product:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Cannon Project: January 2008
http://nasselstinecannon.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 30, 2008. Monday, January 28, 2008. First we cut slits down both sides. Afterwards we wrapped both ends together to form a funnel, taping this together. Finally, we taped the top chamber on, and the stand, giving us our final product:. After our original plan was formed we began to sketch the cannon. Our original funnel sketch depicted the rough dimensions of the top chamber. Our next sketch was a representation of the entire cannon. P1 x V1 = P2 x V2. As Pressure Volume v.

Cannon Project: Planning
http://nasselstinecannon.blogspot.com/2008/01/planning.html
Monday, January 28, 2008. After our original plan was formed we began to sketch the cannon. Our original funnel sketch depicted the rough dimensions of the top chamber. Our next sketch was a representation of the entire cannon. After realizing the dimensions of the launched object would be different, we decided to shorten the length of the top chamber to let the projectile rest on the top of the tube.

Tuesday, February 12, 2008. We think these results occurred, because the amount of pressure was decreased from the cone fixture within the cannon. In accordance with Boyle’s Gas Law, the amount of volume we had was too large in essence of the ratio of pressure to volume. Saturday, February 9, 2008. Http:/ nasselstinecannon.blogspot.com/. Posted by Ms. Micallef. Wednesday, February 6, 2008. The ring around our barrel enabled friction to be minimized, and seemed to have prevented the barrel from melting.

Cannon Project: Firing and Reflection
http://nasselstinecannon.blogspot.com/2008/02/firing.html
Wednesday, February 6, 2008. When we fired our cannon, as Group 3, our cannon did not fire. Instead, our cannon instantly filled with smoke and the ball began to burn. Our cannon heated up, but did not melt or deform. Another group, Elsie, Jermaine and Sarah, fired their ball 20 ft. When the cannon went off, there was a large bang, and the end of the barrel soon began to melt. If the volume of the cannon had been less, our cannon's pressure may have built up better.

Tennis Ball Cannon: Project Based Learning Project: Sketches for Cannon
http://jlargecannon.blogspot.com/2008/02/sketches-for-cannon.html
Tuesday, February 12, 2008. Original Sketch. We had a wider opening of the cone and an overall longer launcher. Second sketch. In this sketch we have dimensions for our launcher. We actually changed this so that the body is shorter. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Abria Roland, Jack Guttenberger, Curtis McLaughlin, Jordan Large, and Nathan Asselstine.
