Not only do I get the "shape" of the acceleration curve for the colliding cart, but I also get a maximum acceleration of –6.67 meters per second squared.

There are two main reasons why the maximum force is different with this method. First, I've only collected a position point every 1/30th of a second, because my video frame rate was…
