Question

Explore momentum with the cart and the brick simulation:

https://www.physicsclassroom.com/Physics-Interactives/Momentum-and-Collisions/The-Cart-and-the-Brick/The-Cart-and-the-Brick-Interactive

Maximize the simulation and explore the sample analysis.

After you feel comfortable with the information and analysis begin the simulation by clicking the Begin Activity button at the bottom.

Choose the lower righ Experimental Condition from the setups (see first figure below):

Analyze the pre-collision data. Consider the measurements good to two significant digits.

(a) What is the pre-collision momentum of the cart

(b) What is the pre-collision momentum of the brick?

(c) What is the total pre-collision momentum of the cart and the brick?

(d) What is the post-collision momentum of the cart?

(e) What is the post-collision momentum of the brick?

(f) What is the total post-collision momentum of the cart and the brick?

(g) How do the pre- and post-collision data compare?

Answer 1

Alright Dude, If that worked for you... dont forget to give THUMBS UP.(that will work for me!)

If I missed something feel free to leave a comment.
atleast before giving downvote.
