My group used one cart, a timer, and two metersticks to measure the distance and the time that was
covered by the cart. We used these numbers to calculate the velocity of the cart. We repeated this
process three times and each time we changed the amount of force applied which in turn changed
velocity. This caused the momentum to change because all momentum is is inertia in motion.
Because the car had more momentum when it had a higher velocity, it resisted the change in motion
more.
