ID Code: K2-40
Purpose: Demonstrate magnetic potential energy
Description: Release a single ball from one upper end of the track. It rolls down and across the track until is collides with a stationary line of balls. As expected, the last ball in the line moves out with slightly less speed than the incoming ball. Now repeat the demonstration, replacing the first stationary ball in the line with the magnetic ball and the result is quite different.
