Platforms
To run the simulation, you will alter mass in creating momentum of the carts. The total mass of the carts in the collision is the variable.
What did you include in your hypothesis? Check all that apply.
Obtain a copy of the Student Guide for this lab. Your teacher may provide a copy, or you can click the link to access it. Be sure to read the entire Student Guide for this lab. Did you read the Student Guide carefully?
Review data tables A–H in your Student Guide. Did you record all data throughout the virtual lab experiment?
The velocity of the combined carts after the collision will change because of the change in the independent variable. In this way, the final velocity is the variable.
