THEORY:
Pi = Pf
V=D/T
P=M*V

We also got two times from the two time gates.
Time gate 1: 0.0152 seconds
Time gate 2: 0.0235 seconds
Above we have our initial and final illustrations and our work.
RESULTS: From the two photogates we had two different times, one for initial
and one for final: Photogate 1: 0.0152
Photogate 2: 0.0235
Vi= 0.658 m/s
Vf= 0.426 m/s
