1 Stomp Rocket Lab Physics Stomp Rockets are plastic projectiles that are launched when a bladder of air is hit or stomped with a foot. Typically the launch angle can be changed, but should be left at 90 o (completely vertical) for this lab. Using stopwatches, students can measure the total amount of time that the rocket is in the air. They can then use the kinematics equations to determine the initial velocity and peak height of the rocket. The stomp rocket lab can be performed in one of two ways. It can be done in a more traditional lab format with the lab below or it can be performed as a discovery lab. To do the stomp rocket lab as a discovery lab, simply give each group of students a stomp rocket/launcher and a stopwatch. Explain to them that you would like them to determine the initial velocity and peak height of the rocket. Students then work on their own to solve the problem, with as much or as little teacher guidance as necessary. Work to hand in may include: Diagram of the experiment, with important points in the path of the rocket labeled Trial heights All calculations
2 Stomp Rocket Laboratory Physics Name Problem: The goal of this experiment is to calculate the initial velocity and peak height of a rocket launched vertically, using the kinematics equations learned in class. Procedure: 1. Go outside and set up the rocket launcher and rocket. Try to have the rocket aiming perfectly straight up. 2. Do a couple of practice launches. 3. When you are ready, you should time the entire flight of the rocket for each person in your group, up to three people. 4. As one student launches the rocket, another student will time the flight with the stopwatch. Remember you need the time from when the rocket is launched to when the rocket returns to the ground. 5. Write down each person s name and their total flight time in the data table on the next page. Calculations: Using the kinematics equations for constant acceleration, FIRST perform the following calculations for YOUR launch. Then repeat the calculations for the other two launches. Lastly, add your results to the data table. Equations: g = -9.8 m/s 2 v = v o + at Y = v o t + ½ at 2 v 2 = v o 2 + 2a(Y) 1. The apex is the peak of the rocket s flight. Calculate the time it takes the rocket to reach its apex, which is equal to ½ the total flight time. Enter this information in the data table. 2. Make a mini-sketch of the path of the rocket launch and landing. Label the ground level x o and the highest point x. Next to the x s, write the corresponding symbols for initial and final velocity. What section(s) of your sketch do you think would be represented by t and ½ t? Label t and ½ t.
3 3. What is the velocity of the rocket at the instant it reaches its apex? 4. What is the acceleration of the rocket during its flight? 5. For your launch, fill in any values you have for the following variables. Indicate unknowns with a (?). v o v x o x a t highest point 6. Taking into account the variables for which you have data, select an equation that could be used to determine the initial launch velocity of the rocket. Write the equation below. 7. Use the equation you chose in #6 to calculate the initial velocity of your launch only. Be sure to recopy the equation and rewrite all the variables you have data for, solve for the initial velocity showing all work. Fill in the initial velocity for your launch in the data table.
4 8. Now, again taking into account the variables which you now do have data for, what equations could be used to determine the maximum height achieved by the rocket? 9. Use either of the equation you chose in #8 to calculate the maximum height of your rocket. Show ALL work and steps as you did in #7. Enter this information in the data table. 10. Now repeat the above steps for the other two launches in each case, solving for initial velocity (v o ) and maximum height (x). Be sure to use each of the two possible equations for maximum height in order to gain familiarity with each of them. Enter this information in the data table. Data: Name Total Time (seconds) Time to Apex (seconds) Initial Velocity (m/s) Maximum Height (m)
5 Conclusions: 1. What was the rocket s velocity at the apex of its flight? 2. What is the rocket s speed just before it hits the ground equivalent to? 3. Rank your three launches in terms of lowest to highest initial velocity and lowest to highest maximum height. (Lowest v o ) (Highest v o ) (Lowest apex) (Highest apex) 4. What is the relationship between the initial velocity and the apex of the rocket? 5. Explain how you could use this method to calculate the height of fireworks?
