Inelastic Collision

Repeat experiment for the following trials:

1. One stationaryglider, one mobileglider, equal masses
2. One stationary glider bigger mass, is hit by one mobile glider (small mass)
3. One stationary glider small mass, is hit by one mobileglider (big mass)
4. Two mobile gliders, equal masses
5. Two mobile gliders, unequal masses

1. Velocities of the gliders (from Pasco Capstone): The software provides you with speed (always positive), not velocity, meaning there is no sign associated to the velocity, you must introduce the velocities (not speed) in the table with the correct sign. Consider right as a positive direction.

Keep in mind that momentum is a vector, so use appropriate signs to indicate direction; assign appropriate + or signs to your momentum, the same you did for the velocities.

Mass of the gliders: m₁= m_{2 =} 201.61 kg,

m1 (kg)	m2 (kg)	v1i (m/s)	v2i (m/s)	vf (m/s)

1. Momenta:

p1i(kg m/s)	p2i(kg m/s)	p1f(kg m/s)	p2f(kg m/s)	p (kg m/s)

How do the momentum changes of the gliders compare? What is the total momentum before and after the collision? Was momentum conserved in the collision to within the accuracy of your measurements? Discuss.

1. Energy:

KE1i (J)	KE2i (J)	KE1f (J)	KE2f (J)	KE (J)	=KEf/KEi*100

Is momentum conserved in this type of collision? Is kinetic energy conserved? If not, how much is lost? What becomes of the lost energy? Explain

Explain the difference between the two types of collisions and when the kinetic energy conserves (for what type of collision). Explain why does the kinetic energy conserves for one type of collision but not for the other one.

Would the linear momentum conserve for both types of collision? How do you know, explain.
