Air Puck 2

ME, Bay B6, Shelf #3

1N40.25.b

Important Setup Notes:

  • N/A

Setup and Procedure:

  1. Flip the power switches located on the bottom of the pucks to the on position and place the units on a table or the floor.
  2. "AA" Batteries are stored in refrigerator.

Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:

  • N/A

Discussion:

Use the two air pucks to model inelastic collisions between equal masses at zero friction.
