PHYS 2108 Chapter : Lab 6 Phys 2108
Document Summary
The purpose of this lab is to observe and measure the different types of momentum that can be produced by two objects. In this experiment, we will be using different masses and the photogates to measure different types of momentum such as elastic collision, inelastic collision, and explosions. Repeat the experiment using this cart: use the spring-loaded plunger to collide the two carts together, remove the target card and send only the projectile cart down the ramp, measure the mass of all the carts.
