A momentum and collisions lab for ages 10-15 running the real physics. Crash Lab gives two carts with mass (1-4 kg) and velocity (-4 to +4 m/s) sliders and BOUNCE (elastic) or STICK (couple together) collisions using the exact elastic and perfectly inelastic formulas, so momentum totals match before and after every run; kinetic energy totals and the equal-mass velocity swap are called out, with an honest card on where kinetic energy goes in a sticky collision. Momentum Missions adds 3 challenges with worked explanations.
