The Physics Classroom: Momentum and Collisions: The Cart and the Brick Part A

Curated by ACT

An animation that portrays the collision between a 3.0-kg loaded cart and a 2-kg dropped brick. It will be assumed that there are no net external forces acting upon the two objects involved in the collision. The only net force acting upon the two objects are internal forces- the force of friction between the loaded cart and the dropped brick. The before and after collision velocities and momentum are shown in the data tables.
