diagram for demo

Ballistic Car: Set the Ballistic Car switch to 'On'. Insert and depress the ball into the barrel of the Ballistic Car until it cocks. Give the car a smooth push. The Photogate Trip (mounted on the track) causes the ball to be launched. The ball will follow a parabolic trajectory and fall back into the cup on top of the Ballistic Car. Note: 'Aim Adjust Screws' may have to be adjusted to have the ball land properly in the cup.
