Conservation of Linear Momentum and Energy Experiment by using PHET Simulation Please help me finish the rest of the table: Part 2: Inelastic Collision: Use the same link from PHET Colorado Simulation. https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/collision-lab/latest/collision-lab_en.html CHANGE: Elasticity to 0% by dragging the blue triangle to the left Select: m1 = 3 kg and m2 = 2 kg KEEP: *position 1 (0.5 m) and *position 2 (1.5 m) Select: *v1i = 2.00 m/s and *v2i = 0 Click on Play, then after collision Pause Record the value of vf into tables 4 & 5. Calculate the values of Pi, Pf, Pf/Pi, Ki, Kf and Kf/Ki and record them into tables 4 & 5. Repeat the experiment for three other different values of v1i and KEEP v2i = 0 as shown in tables 4 & 5 and record the values into tables 4 & 5. Table 4 V1i (m/s) | V2i (m/s) | Vf (m/s) | Pi = m1v1i (kg·m/s) | Pf = (m1 + m2)vf (kg·m/s) | Pf/Pi 2.00 | 0 | 1.2 | 6 | 6 | 1 2.50 | 0 | | | | 3.00 | 0 | | | | Table 5 V1i (m/s) | V2i (m/s) | Vf (m/s) | Ki = (0.5m1v1i^2) (J) | Kf = 0.5(m1 + m2)vf^2 (J) | Kf/Ki 2.00 | 0 | 1.2 | 6 | 3.6 | 0.6 2.50 | 0 | | | | 3.00 | 0 | | | |

Activity 2: Elastic Collision: Mass Added to Cart A Data Table 2 Table 2A. Cart A before collision. Cart A mass, m (kg) Distance, d (m) Time, t (s) Average time, t (s) Velocity = d/t (m/s) vA 0.189 .5 Trial 1: 0.68 Trial 2: 0.63 Trial 3: 0.61 0.64 0.78 Table 2B. Cart A after collision. Cart A mass, m (kg) Distance, d (m) Time, t (s) Average time, t (s) Velocity = d/t (m/s) vA' 0.189 .2 Trial 1: 1.24 Trial 2: 1.26 Trial 3: 1.33 1.79 0.11 Table 2C. Cart B after collision. Cart B mass, m (kg) Distance, d (m) Time, t (s) Average time, t (s) Velocity = d/t (m/s) vB' 0.70 .5 Trial 1: 0.45 Trial 2: 0.43 Trial 3: 0.51 0.46 1.08 Calculations for Activity 2. Elastic Collision: Mass Added to Cart A. Helpful equations: Momentum before the collision = mAvA + mBvB Momentum after the collision = mAvA' + mBvB' mAvA + mBvB = mAvA' + mBvB' Percent difference = |(first value - second value) / ((first value + second value) / 2)| x 100% 1. Calculate the momentum of the system before the collision (the left side of the equation) and after the collision (the right side of the equation). 2. Calculate the percent difference between the two values. 3. Explain any difference in the values before and after the collision.

PhET Collision Lab Name: Directions: Go to PhET and find the Collision Lab. Create all of the following situations. Use data to back up your answers. Part 1 Scenario 1: Elastic collision between balls of Equal Mass Scenario 2: Elastic collision Mass of balls are Unequal. Make sure the 1d box is checked. Setup both scenarios and make a hypothesis about initial and final momentums in each scenario. Make a data table for the following: mass, velocity and momentum of each ball before and after. What is the relationship between the initial and final momentums? Describe the motion of the balls before and after the collision. Part 2 Create 3 more distinct scenarios. Make a hypothesis whether or not they are going to follow conservation of momentum. Collect some data and prove or disprove your hypothesis. Summary: Describe the main ideas learned in this activity regarding initial and final total momentum in elastic collisions.
