    1. The document contains data from an experiment measuring the angular momentum of a puck over time using two different coordinate systems - one with the origin at the center of the puck, and one with the origin at an arbitrary point. 2. The first coordinate system yielded conserved angular momentum over time, while the second system did not, since the origin was not at the puck's center of rotation. 3. The slope of the angular momentum graph using the second coordinate system represents the net torque acting on the puck, which changed over time due to the offset origin. The slope was largest when the puck was furthest from the second origin.

    1. Using Figure 1 for reference, list a couple of ways for there to be no net torque on that particle. What
    must be true about any forces acting on it?

    Question 1. Is it reasonable to say that angular momentum is conserved about this origin? Explain how you know.

    Question 2. Did your calculations of Lz for the two origins agree?

    Question 3. If they didn’t, why not?


    Question 4. What was special about the first origin that caused Lz to be conserved?

    Question 5. Was there a net torque on the puck about the first origin?

    Question 6. Was there a net torque on the puck about the second origin?

    Question 7. If your answers to #5 and #6 were different, explain why.

    Question 8. What is the physical interpretation of the slope of your second graph?

    Question 9. At what point during the puck’s motion was the slope of the second graph the largest? Why do you suppose that w
