COLLISION BALLS
APPARATUS
collision balls

DESCRIPTION
This set of nine aligned balls with
equal
masses on bifilar supports are used to show elastic collisions.
Pull
aside N balls and release. N balls will swing up on the other
side,
drop back down, and then the process repeats. This is consistent
with conservation
of momentum and energy.
