Sample Data

Experiment 1: Damped Oscillation

Damping

increases as

the magnets

are moved

closer to the

track.

Experiment 2: Critical Damping

Critical damp-

ing makes the

cart stop in

the shortest

time.

Note that, due

to static fric-

tion, the

under-damped

cart stops at a

slightly differ-

ent position.
