Coupled Air Carts: Two air tracks, one level and one at an angle of
flag attached that interrupts one of
three LEDs connected to a timing system. The
horizontal cart is released at
the beginning of the track and the velocity of the cart is
measured at set intervals. Acceleration of the carts is determined and compared with theory.
