Description
๐ Explore
Launch projectiles and study the centre and spread of their landing-distance distributions.
๐ฎ Try It
Choose a launch angle, launcher and projectile, then use single or continuous launches. Change angle variability and show paths, mean, median or standard deviation. In Sampling mode, choose a sample size and draw one or 25 samples.
๐ฏ Your Mission
Predict which of two angle-variability settings will produce the smaller standard deviation. Collect enough launches to test fairly, then justify your conclusion with the histogram.
๐ Real-World Connection
Engineers repeat launch tests to measure both accuracy and consistency.
