Determine the average range of the projectile.

Launch the projectile 10 times at a fixed firing angle of 30

degrees. Measure the range of the projectile each time and
record the results in the table provided in decimal feet.
Calculate the mean range.

Determine the actual range of the projectile at various firing angles.

Launch the projectile from the ballistic device three times for every angle
setting, record the range in decimal feet, and calculate the mean average range
in the table provided.

Compare the ideal range and the actual range of the device.
Input the values gathered into the Excel spreadsheet to create a
graph that illustrates the contrast between the calculated (ideal) range
of the ballistic device and the actual range of the device at the
selected firing angles
