Lab Report Format Expectations
Utilize college level grammar and formaṄng when answering text based
questions. Report all equations in a proper mathematical format, with the correct
signs and symbols. Submissions with incomplete or improperly formatted
responses may be rejected.
Pre-Lab Questions
• A billiard ball collides head-on with a billiard ball at rest.
• Sketch a position vs. time graph for each ball. Include the position before the
collision, once the collision occurs and after the collision. Include your hand
written name in your
diagram.
, • What can be said about the conservation of momentum for the collision?
Explain your answer.
The momentum was conserved due to the elastic collision of the marble that hits
the other marbles at rest.
• Write down the total momentum for two marbles of mass, m, both moving at
velocity,
v. What is the kinetic energy of the
system? Click here to enter text.
