Use the force sensors to show that
when
the carts interact, the forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in
direction. There are different attachments for the force sensors
for elastic or inelastic collisions, or for pulling or pushing.
Add masses to one to show that
relative mass is not a factor.
NOTES
Open "third law" experiment
file.
Set force sensors to their 50 N scales and calibrate. Secure
sensors to carts and zero them.
Use rubber stopper attachment for
elastic collisions, clay for inelastic collisions, and hooks for
pulling.
