It will launch a 25 g projectile to a range of 2.15 m when it is launched at an angle of 45 degrees. You can use this information to find the initial velocity of the ball, of course, (and you should). Therefore, you should be able to calculate how much energy the spring in the projectile launcher must impart to the ball as it is being launched. The ball is pushed back 7.5 cm in the projectile launcher in order to getit ready to fire. What is the spring constant of the projectile launcher?
When a chip jumps, the energy comes from the muscles, but also from an elastic protein which is subjected to a compression similar to that of a spring.
