An Intuitive Physics Study on the Role of Mass in Horizontal Collisions

Year: 2014
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: The participants in our experiment were asked to judge \nwhether simulated horizontal collisions appeared to be \n“natural” or “unnatural”. We manipulated the simulated \nmaterials and the velocity ratio of two colliding objects. The \nresults revealed a fair degree of consistency between \npredictions of Newtonian mechanics and the participants’ \nresponses.
