Newton's Magnetic Cradle
![Magnetic balls on a small ramp](/media/libraries/college-of-science-and-engineering/physics/images/demo-images/mechanics/20220815_114850.jpg)
PIRA: 1N30.15
Materials: Wooden Cradle, 4 Non-Magnetic Silver Balls, 1 Magnetic Silver Ball
This demo is to show a mini magnetic linear accelerator. You roll the magnetic ball down the ramp and it will send more momentum through the line of balls sending the silver ball a farther distance than normal.
