can anyone help me in figuring out why i got different answers in my calculated value to my experiment value (or maybe its normal) when i calculated the aproximate distance a projectile would shoot up when i compressed a spring thru a distance. i calculated the spring constant and found the final velocity of the projectile once in projectile motion(which would make it its initial as a projectile).i checked the distance it traveled vertcally.compred it to my calculated one and they were very different. can anyone help explain why?friction, weight of the spring were not considered.thank
