Description

The PSSC Collision in Two Dimensions kit is a bench-clamped apparatus for studying two-dimensional ball collisions at controlled angles. It supports collisions between balls of different masses so students can measure post-collision outcomes and apply standard mechanics principles, including momentum and vector component methods, using recorded distances and angles.
After the collision, the landing points on the floor are recorded using carbon paper, producing clear impact marks for measurement. A plumb bob dropped from beneath the target ball establishes a zero reference point directly below the collision position, giving a consistent origin for distance and angle measurements. This layout enables repeatable data collection for classroom calculations and discussion of collision behaviour in two dimensions.

 

FAQs
Q: What does this kit demonstrate?
A: Two-dimensional collisions, with measured outcomes used for mechanics and dynamics calculations.
Q: How is the apparatus mounted?
A: It clamps to a bench for stable setup and repeatable collision geometry.
Q: How are the landing points recorded?
A: Carbon paper leaves a mark on the floor where each ball lands.
Q: What is the plumb bob used for?
A: It provides a zero reference point on the floor directly below the target ball position.
Q: What measurements are taken for analysis?
A: Distances and angles from the zero point to the carbon paper impact marks.
