Research Interests: Study of Radar polarimetry and Synthetic Aperture Radar Image simulation using polarimetric scattering mechanisms and target extraction techniques from polarimetric SAR data. Man-made target analysis using polarimetric target decompositions and orientation effects.

Use your computers to analyze videos in which two carts collide on a track. You might want to read the instructions for marking properties on videos in LabPro.

Go to the folder:

      Student Shares -> University Physics Students -> Team Physics 311
              -> LabPro -> P105COMVideo

Double-click on the P1051DCOMUnequalMass file. It shows a collision between a massive cart and a lighter one.

What is the momentum of each cart before the collision?
What is the total momentum before the collision?
What is the momentum of each cart after the collision?
What is the total momentum after the collision?
Is the total momentum conserved? If not, there must be some external forces acting on the carts. What are the most likely suspects?
