Set-up and procedure
The experimental set-up is shown in Fig. 1.
The starting device is mounted in such a manner that triggering unit releases the glider without giving it an initial impulse
when triggered. It is connected with the two “Start” jacks on
the timer; when connecting it, ensure that the polarity is correct. The red jack on the starting device is connected with the
yellow jack of the timer. The four light barriers are connected
in sequence from left to right with the control input jacks “1”
to “4” on the timer. Connect jacks having the same colour
when doing so
