• Mike & Roger, Do you guys have a frictionless track for a demo on Newton's First Law? I'd like to roll a car on the desktop, which has friction, and compare that to rolling the same car with same initial velocity on the frictionless track. I could use the air puck but I'd like to restrict things to 1D... Thanks for any info you can provide, Chris Neu chris.neu@virginia.edu
