There's another neat experiment about judging velocity from how far a cannon rolls back when fired. Try to see if I can find that one again, (it's a college journal-type thingo I found a while ago...)

How about right now?
I am going to ask my teacher tomorrow if he could locate a chrony for me. That would definitely make velocity tests a bit easier. I like the idea of testing the different power of fuels, especially between MAPP and propane. I've been wondering how much of a difference there is.

hate to ruin the ending, but burntlatke.com will tell you the answer for MAPP and Propane.

so you just dont look at them. Then you do your project anyway and get an A.

You could look at them and still get an A. If he has 'been wondering' I don't know why he wouldn't look, and it would be nice to have two sets of numbers to compare anyway.

but the temptation of just giving that data would be to strong for me, I don't know about him though.

I just looked at that site and read up about all the results. The temptation was just too powerful but I guess I'll just have to suffer through testing it out for myself.
