We did this lab to learn how to calculate the initial speed of the ballistic pendulum and to learn how people in the real world use the information to calculate the velocity of a gun's shot.
 * Ballistic Pendulum Lab**
 * Purpose**

It is expected that the change of kinetic energy in elastic collisions is mostly conserved while in the inelastic there is a much bigger difference.
