ENGR 216 Lab II Mechanics - Texas A&M University. LAB 4: COLLISIONS- Keywords: Velocity, Kinetic, Collision, Puck, MomentumThe study of collisions between pucks taking place at 8 different angles will be covered in this lab report. The team will monitor various collision angle traces using the tracking camera, and these measurements will be used to calculate the momentum before and after each collision and to ensure that momentum is maintained. Furthermore, to determine the elasticity of the collision, the kinetic energy before and after each collision will be measured. This exercise gives an appreciation of the characteristics of momentum and kinetic energy in collisions.
