AP Momentum labs

Here are the spreadsheets for the momentum labs for Sections 3 and 4. Download the sheet for your class and test each run for momentum and energy conservation. The momentum conservation should be pretty good with just some slight losses to friction. Energy conservation should be another matter due to losses to crinkling tape, smashing velcro, creating noise , etc. Since I did not get the links up until this morning the labs will be due on Friday.

This lab requires a formal writeup.
