Project 12A: EM-Boar Tiger Cub
After successfully trapping one of the monsters for study it becomes clear that you have captured a young version of the monster. Because of the apparent resemblance to both boars and tigers and their electromagnetic glow the scientists at the compound have taken to calling the monsters EM-boar tigers. So you have captured an EM-boar tiger cub. It turns out that EM boar tigers are super protective of their young and they have organized to attack the Lakeview compound. Surprisingly, even though it is a government facility, there are no guns at the compound. But you are scientists and engineers godammit! You decide to construct makeshift launcher that is using magnetic force to launch projectiles so that they will leave the launcher at a speed of 300m/s. You must construct your launcher on the floor of your laboratory and position it at an angle of 63 degrees so that it is firing out of the window of your laboratory.
At your disposal to construct your launcher, you have access to two copper rails that can be cut to your specifications. You also have perspex that you can cut to any dimensions and chunks of aluminum that can be cut to any shape. You also have access to multiple variable power supplies that can be set to a requested voltage and a bunch of wires that can be cut to any length and some switches. You must outline your design, explaining the physics behind the design of the magnetic force launcher and indicating the current needed to reach an exit velocity from the launcher of 300m/s.
