    Newton's Cradle is an apparatus that demonstrates conservation of momentum and energy through a series of solid steel balls suspended in a line that are set into motion by gently tapping one end of the line. The document describes testing criteria where individual marbles or pairs of marbles were pulled back and released at 45 or 80 degree angles, with results noting which marbles moved depending on how many were pulled and the angle of release.

    Testing Criteria Results (5pts each)


    Pull one marble back to a 45 deg. angle and Only the first and last marbles moved
    release
    Pull two marbles back to a 45 deg. angle and Only he first and last two moved
    release

    Pull one marble back on both sides to a 45 Only those two marbles moved the ones
    deg. angle and release in the middle stayed still

    Pull two marbles back on both sides to a 45 It just got tangled up


    deg. angle and release

    Pull one marble back to roughly 80 deg. It was almost the same as the first two but
    angle and release it scattered a lot more

    Pull one marble back on both sides to roughly The marbles just go crazy and scatter
    80 deg. angle and release
