ID Code: C7-04
Purpose: Illustrate velocity multiplication with a three-to-one mass ratio collision.
Description: Air track gliders with masses in the ratio of three to one, moving with the same speed, collide with the end of the air track (at right side of photo). After the collision sequence, the larger glider remains at rest while the smaller glider leaves with twice its initial speed, thus carrying away the total kinetic energy of both gliders before the collision.
