Why do some objects roll down faster than other objects?
The mass and the trajectory of the object affect the speed at which the object will roll.
What kinds of objects roll and what do these objects have in common?
Some things can roll a short distance if rolled sepatately, such as a coin on its side. Other things can roll short or longer distances, depending on weight, circumference/diameter, force applied, including:cardboard empty rolls from toilet tissue or paper towelsballmarbletirestin canAll have a circumference/diameter, even though weight and force may differ. Some, like a tin can, also are cylindrical shapes that have the potential to hold a volume (example: a full can of peas).
Why does heavier marble roll slower than a lighter marble down a slope?
higher inertial mass
Does a basketball roll faster on a smooth surface or a rough surface?
on a smooth surface
Does a full can roll faster than a empty can down a ramp?
Yes it rolls faster because the fluid in a can is dense and increases the velocity.
Why wheels make things faster?
Because they roll
Will the cart roll faster with or without mass?
If the cart is rolling downhill it will roll faster with mass, but on level ground or uphill it will roll faster without mass.
What can of soda would go faster an empty one or one that is full?
If you roll it on its side down a slight slope, the full can would go faster because it has more weight.
Why do rain clouds move faster?
They move faster then others because they have weight in them. It may not make sense, but try this: Take a marble and a bowling ball. Roll them both the same speed. Which one goes faster? It will be the bowling ball because it has more weight to it. Regular clouds do not have much weight to them, so they float through the sky slower then rain clouds.
How fast do balls roll?
the speed of a ball all deends on how fast you roll it, what its mass is, and the incline.The faster you roll it, the steeper the incline is, and the greater the mass will all make it faster
How does the mass of a toy car affect how far it will roll before stopping when it rolls down atrack at an incline?
When things are heavier they fall faster. The faster something goes the longer it takes to stop.
Do heavier objects roll down a hill faster than lighter ones?
Rolling is more complicated than falling, because rotational inertia is involved. Without that factor, in an ideal world this is the same as asking if a heavier object falls faster than a lighter one. The answer to that question (again, in an ideal world) is no. In the real world... it might, or it might not, it depends on the exact circumstances. There's no fundamental reason that it should if the objects have similar construction (i.e. moments of rotational inertia), but friction and wind resistance complicate things.
How much does a Butcher Paper Roll weight?
That depends on the size of the Butcher Paper Roll. A 12 inch wide, 900 feet long roll one has a roll weight of 12 lbs. If the roll was 18 inch wide and the same length the roll weight is 18 lbs. A 30 inch wide, 1000 feet long has a roll weight of slightly above 30 lbs.
Why do things roll?
why do balls roll
The heavier a ball is the faster it fall and the faster it will roll down a ramp?
Yes, that is true because of kinetic energy, If something is heavy and you roll it down fast, then kinetic energy builds up.All other things being equal the mass of the ball has no effect on its acceleration. A fact discovered by Galileo.
Does a small or a large ball travel faster in wind?
Well it all depends on what types really, if they are both of the same, then the big one will roll faster. Lets say for example, you had a big kick ball and a little kick ball, the big will roll faster in the wind. Sorry about the second post, but i almost forgot, it also depends on how big the ball is, because if it's MUCH larger then it will not roll faster, and if it too small, it will hardly roll as well. So as long they are close in size the big one will roll/travel faster
Does a golf ball go faster as you increase the slope of a ramp?
In other words, does a golf ball roll faster up a hill? No obviously not. It would roll faster down a slope, it's called gravity.
