animated gif showing a cart launched up a ramp by a spring

Each video shows the launch of the cart with 4-5 different system masses. For each video, record the following:

  • The slope of the ramp.
  • The mass of the cart and the mass added on top of it.
  • The initial position of the cart.
  • The position of the cart when it comes to a stop (the highest it gets).
