Perkins-Harbin, Sam. “BPC-101 Basic Pneumatic Cannon.” 2001. http://www.stinggroup.addr.com/cannon/cannon.html This site gave us background on basic building techniques and materials Parsons, Patrick. “How to build a Better Pneumatic Spud Gun.” 1999. http://acoti.8m.com/SE2000.html This site gave us a better idea of the physics behind how a cannon works, and also how to build one. “Pneumatic Air Cannons.” http://www.angelfire.com/il/pneumaticspud/index.html This site helped us with building the cannon, and what specific parts to use. Giancoli, Douglas C. Physics, Principles With Applications. New Jersey: Prentince Hall, 1980. Our physics textbook taught us about the physics of a projectile, as well as some of the trigonometry we used. “Pneumatic Cannon.” http://www.gizmology.net/airgun.htm This site gave us information on what to expect from our experiment, as well as specifics on the air compression and pressure. |
