2Under which specific condition is the total momentum of a system of objects conserved?
3In the CLM experiment, why is it critical to measure the puck's speed only after it has left your finger?
4If a camera records at a frame rate of 30 frames per second (fps) and a puck travels a distance 'd' between two consecutive frames, what is the equation to calculate its speed (v)?
5Why should students use video frames immediately before and after the collision rather than frames recorded long before or long after the event?
6According to the manual, why is good lighting required when filming the collision with a short shutter speed?
7Which of the following are differences between elastic and inelastic collisions?
8What is the primary purpose of including a calibration ruler in the video recording of the puck collision?
9A student estimates a puck moves at 1 m/s. If the camera captures 60 frames per second, how far (in mm) does the puck move between two consecutive frames?
