1) Introduction This Lab is about conservation of momentum. It is to investigate the difference of momentum before and after collisions. Using the photo gates record the velocity of each cart‚ comparing momentum and kinetic energy to find the law. The experimental apparatus are two red carts in approximately same weight and a gold cart in lower weight than the red ones‚ a stable air track (blow a constant stream of air out through numerous tiny holes) with low friction and two photo gates. 2) Project

Collisions in Two Dimensions Abstract: This lab was conducted to investigate the theories of conservation of momentum and kinetic energy in different types of 2D collisions. In order to do this‚ both an elastic and inelastic collision was conducted on an air table with pucks. A video was taken and analyzed to determine velocity‚ allowing for future finding of momentum and kinetic energy values. By finding these‚ it was possible to determine which kind of collision took place. With low values of

Unit 6 – Momentum Internet Lab – Momentum and Collisions Name: Date: Period: Website: http://phet.colorado.edu/ Play with the Sims Physics Motion Collision Lab Introduction: When objects move‚ they have momentum. Momentum‚ p‚ is the product of an object’s mass (kg) and its velocity (m/s). The unit for momentum‚ p‚ is kg·m/s. During a collision objects transfer momentum to each other‚ resulting in different motions than before the collision. In this activity you will study the motion

The captains of MV St. Thomas Aquinas and MV Sulpicio Express Siete told conflicting stories about the collision of their ships last week at Lawis Ledge in Talisay‚ Cebu when they were called in by the Special Board of Marine Inquiry (SBMI) yesterday. The SBMI also called in the captain of Trans Asia Nine as the vessel was reportedly present in the accident area prior to the collision on the night of Aug. 16. Captain Reynan Bermejo of St. Thomas Aquinas said he was traversing the inbound lane on

*CHEMICAL KINETICS Collision theory and rates of reaction *One of the main considerations when examining chemical reaction is whether it will take place fast enough for it to be useful. *In other words‚ there’s no point carrying out a reaction if it takes 150 years to form the product! *Many chemical reactions occur very quickly. *Studying Reaction Rates *Defined as the change in concentration of reactants of products per unit time. *Units: mol dm¯³ s¯¹ *Rate of Reaction * ‚ the

During a car crash‚ there are three different collisions that occur. The first one is the collision of the car and the opposing object‚ the second is the human inside the car and the car itself. The final collision is the ones that occur within the human body itself. BRAIN: The human brain is protected by the cranial cavity or the skull. The brain is suspended in a substance called the cerebral spinal fluid‚ which is denser than the skull itself. In a collision‚ the brain and cerebral spinal fluid begin

Culture collision plays a role in the world everyday in different situations. Culture collision is when two different cultures collide. When a person from a different country and culture move they have to adjust to whatever the culture of the place they moved to is. For example‚ immigrants moving from foreign countries to the United States have to change their whole life style to fit in with the culture of the U.S. They would have to get used to the life style of being an American such as learning

“We came here to serve God and the king‚ and also to get rich.” In “The Collision of Cultures”‚ the authors explain the different perspectives of America. Long before the Columbian era‚ people did inhabit the Americas. Indian tribe settled in Mexico known as the Aztecs and Mayans; Further down‚ in South America‚ the vast Incan empire was located. These tribes were each had their own sophisticated society‚ with its own agriculture and trade. However‚ in North America‚ Native Americans were slightly

Culture collisions has been both positive negative to those involved such as Columbus and his run in with the Natives Americans‚ French revolution and the Haitian slaves‚ and African Imperialism. In any culture‚ subculture‚ or family in which belief is valued above thought‚ and self-surrender is valued above self-expression‚ and conformity is valued above integrity‚ those who preserve their self-esteem are likely to be heroic exception. In the culture collisions I learned about most was trying to

A HONKING ABOMINATION TO BE OUR SALVATION? The auto rickshaw is set to enter the mass market as its production soars The economic growth in the Third World since the beginning of the 21st century has been inexorable. It has fuelled a stronger demand for a large range of goods; such as electronics‚ meat and fuel‚ as well as many services; such as healthcare‚ financial planning and legal advice. Among these items is the auto rickshaw‚ also known as the three-wheeler or the motorised rickshaw. It has
