Introduction: In this lab you will investigate the conservation of linear momentum: momentum before an event equals momentum after an event if there is an absence of a non-conservative forces such as friction. The event is this case is a collision between two air track gliders. Two types of collisions will be studied. One is an elastic collision which will not be studied in this lab. after the collision. The second is an inelastic collision where after two objects collide,...
please help with question 4.
EXPERIMENT4: THE LINEAR AIR TRACK The aims of this experiment are to: 1)investigate momentum and energy conservation in coll 2. study the cooversion of energy for a body in free fall. There are two types of collisions, elastic and inelastic. In both types of collision momentum is between two bodies in one dimension. The velocity (and hemee the momentum) may be positive or ycorserved. A body of mass m moving with a velocity vi has...

Suppose in a reference frame S, two objects collide elastically. Particle 1 of mass m1 = 2m is initally at rest, and particle 2 of mass m2 = m is moving with an initial velocity of u2i = −0.75c (negative means moving in the −x direction). The two particles collide elastically. Using classical momentum and energy conservation, an observer in frame S calculates the velocities after collision to be u1f = −0.5c, u2f = 0.25c. (a) Verify that the kinetic...
1) Write down an equation for the conservation of momentum for two colliding objects in terms of masses, initial velocities, and final velocities. 2) Write down an equation for the total energy of two objects 3) Using these two equations, derive equations for the final velocity of each cart given that their initial velocities are both zero.
One object is moving and one object is at rest. The two objects then collide in a dimensional, completely inelastic collision. So the two objects stick together after the collision and move off with a common velocity. Momentum of the two-object system is conserved. The masses of the two objects are 5.00 kg and 8.50 kg, respectively. The speed of the moving object masses 5.00 kg before the collision is 22.5 m/sec. Find the final speed of the two-object system...
Cart 1, with m1= 5.5 kg, is moving on a frictionless linear air track at an initial speed of 1.7 m/s. It undergoes an elastic collision with an initially stationary cart 2, with m2, an unknown mass. After the collision, cart 1 continues in its original direction at 0.6 m/s. 1) The horizontal component of the momentum is conserved for A. cart 1. B. cart 2. C. the system of cart 1 and cart 2. D. Momentum is not conserved...
14) (Conservation of linear momentum) An air cart of mass m=1 kg and speed vo-Im's moves toward second identical air cart that is at rest. When the carts collide, they stick together and move as one a) Using the conservation of linear momentum, calculate the velocity ve when the carts stick together (this is also the velocity of the center of mass after collision). b) Calculate the kinetic energy before and after collision. Is the collision elastic Without any calculation,...
