By partaking in three unique scenarios of both elastic and inelastic collisions, I was able to conclude that speed and velocity are both conserved. This conclusion was made through the change in velocity of a cart relative to its "crasher". For example: throughout the different-mass elastic collisions, the speed that which the cart started and ended were equivalent - indicating that there was conservation of speed, in addition to the complete transfer of velocity. However, in the different-mass elastic

A. Introduction The module is divided into 2 parts, each of which will be discussed over the course of one semester: Microeconomics (ECON 1111) and Macroeconomics (ECON 1211). Microeconomics studies individual decision-making by both consumers and firms and also how they interact in individual markets. Macroeconomics studies the economy as a whole, i.e., it studies economy-wide phenomena resulting from group decision-making in entire markets. This distinction will become clear as we proceed with

American University in Cairo Department of Physics Final Exam Physics (111) Time: 2 Hours Answer the following problems 1)The mass of the blue puck in Figure is equal to 1.2 the mass of the green one. Before colliding, the pucks approach each other with momenta of equal magnitude and opposite directions, and the green puck has an initial speed of 10.0 m/s. Find the speeds of the pucks after the collision if half the kinetic energy is lost during the collision. speed of Blue

Conclusion We have learned from this Rotational Energy experiment that rotational energy is pretty powerful. We learned how to actually calculate and configure our own values for rotational energy rather than collecting them from a problem in the book, and actually use them to achieve our purpose of landing the ball into the cup. We did not achieve our purpose, but we did get pretty close in a couple of our tries. This experiment showed us how rotational energy worked and how it can account for
