Economy Ballistic Pendulum with Heavy Base

This economy ballistic pendulum includes a ballistic launcher, rigid arm pendulum with rubber head, angle backdrop, steel ball, and release mechanism, all connected as a single unit on a heavy base. The angle backdrop simplifies measurement of pendulum swing. The apparatus demonstrates momentum, velocity, conservation of momentum and energy, potential energy, and kinetic energy. Black with white labeling for clear visibility. Suitable for physics classrooms studying classical mechanics and projectile motion.
