Question

Using the conservation of energy, we can use this change in height to figure out the velocity of the block/mass system, vb+m, immediately after the collision. 2guy To determine z, first position the slider so that it is barely touching the stationary block, and record this distance setting as read from the slider guide. Next, perform a few trial runs until you succeed in positioning the slider such that for ten successive impacts the block at the end of its swing sometimes just barely flicks the slider, and at other times just barely fails to reach it. Note the position of the slider and calculatez. Calculate the linear momentum of the system before impact (mvb) and after impact (m Mlubtm and compute the relative difference (in Report Question 2 Within the limits of your experimental accuracy, is momentum conserved during the collision?

Explanation / Answer

As we can see,the momentum will remain conserve because the impact provided is just the change in internal energy so net outside force is zero so momentum is conserved

In collision momentum is conserved
