The notes for the physics lab on range prediction focus on analyzing the horizontal distance (range) traveled by a projectile. Key concepts include initial velocity, launch angle, and the effects of gravity. The lab involves using equations of motion to predict the range and comparing experimental ...

determine the range
since the work done by friction is non conservative work ,
it depends on the force of friction times the

zat2 displacement of the object . Therefore , We is not dependent on the distance traveled /path taken
,
range is i n the x-direction so a = 0 blc V is constant but rather ,
