Conservation of Momentum STEM Lab Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-MH-12526
Quick Answer: This Conservation of Momentum STEM Lab pairs two collision carts with a 1.2m aluminium guide track for testing whether total momentum stays the same before and after a collision. Carts can be loaded with extra mass and fitted with bouncing or sticking bumpers.

About This Product
After levelling the rail and recording each cart’s mass, students send one cart into the other and time both before and after impact. Rebounding collisions with the spring or magnetic bumpers conserve both momentum and kinetic energy, while sticking collisions show that momentum is conserved even when some kinetic energy turns into heat and sound. Keeping the wheels free of dirt and fibres reduces friction errors. Enquiries from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Latvia, South Korea, Belize and Tunisia for the Conservation of Momentum STEM Lab receive an export quotation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the two bumper types?
Spring or magnetic bumpers make the carts bounce apart (elastic collision). Hook-and-loop pads make them stick and move off together (inelastic collision).
