Cannon Project

This is a project about cannons that involves all of my classes. I will be studying the designs of different cannons, social and economical impacts, ethics of cannons, ethics of cannons when being used by child soldiers and how they were affected,  predicted trajectory using quadratics, weapons of mass destruction, gas laws, angles of trajectory, the factors involved when building a cannon, how to build a cannon, and, of course, how to create a blog where people comment!

After we research and build our cannons, we will fire a Nerf ball by igniting ethanol and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.

Wish me luck!
