Newton's Cradle

Newton's cradle is a device that demonstrates conservation of momentum and energy using a series of swinging spheres. 

When one sphere at the end is lifted and released, it strikes the stationary spheres, transmitting a force through the stationary spheres that pushes the last sphere upward. 

This model is created in Soliworks to gain some insight on the 'Motion Study' feature.
