Two carts on an air track are pushed
towards each other. They bounce
|
|
|
off each other
elastically. The graphs describe some of the variables
|
|
|
associated with
the motion as a function of time. For each item in the
|
|
|
list below,
identify which graph is a possible display of that variable as a
|
|
function of
time. If none apply, write N (for none).
|
|
|
a. the momentum of cart 1 b. the force on cart 2
|
|
|
c. the force on cart 1 d. the
position of cart 1.
|
|
|
e. the
position of cart 2
