CSI Ballistics analysis - Kinetic energy of bullet

About This Lesson

This activity gets pupils calculating the kinetic energy of bullets from different guns. As assassination has occurred and they need to know the energies of the different guns. Good for middle to higher groups using the kinetic energy and thinking about loss of energy as bullets travel through the air. Place the 'bullet data' cards around the classroom and get pupils to move around and analyse the data.
