Newton’s Cradle: Molecule Collisions and Energy Transfer
Understanding and studying energy transfer produced by molecules collisions can be difficult and abstract for them. To make it easier for them to visualize, creating a Newton's Cradle will help them visualize and understand better how the molecule collisions transfer energy.
