Important Setup Notes:
This demonstration requires a supply of compressed air!
Setup and Procedure:
- Connect the compressed air supply to the nozzle on the air table.
Turn on the air when ready. See air & gas cart page for operating instructions.
- Place the target puck about one third of the total table length away from the end. This will remain stationary.
- When ready, use your hand to accelerate the other puck from the far end of the table toward the target puck.
- Repeat this collision using different incident angles.
Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:
- Make sure you are using compressed air and NOT methane gas!
Discussion:
In conservative systems, linear momentum is always conserved (the full vector quantity - magnitude & direction). Us
