Here is a short Quicktime videos of a cart moving from left to right colliding with a stationary cart.  Mass is varied in each video so that three elastic collisions and three inelastic collisions are depicted.  This item is designed for computer analysis in introductory physics classrooms.  The videos are 10-30 frames in length and may be viewed in step motion or real-time.  Position and time data may be measured and collected by using video-analysis software.  

This item is part of a larger collection of short physics videos developed by the Rochester Institute of Technology Live Photo Physics Project.

Please note that this resource requires Quicktime.
