Class Experiment
First start with this clip and discuss projectile motion. Set them the following problem: With a ball being fired from the 'gun' (from monkey and Hunter)at what angle should the gun be aimed so that the ball will get over a wall 30cm? high at a distance of 6m? from the gun. Once the pupils have calculated a value then use the gun to see if it works.
