Does the height of a ramp effect the speed of a car?

If you are talking about a car rolling down a ramp then yes. The taller the ramp the more momentum the car will create there for the car will travel farther and faster.


How does mass affect a cars speed down a ramp?

The car's mass should have no effect on that speed.


Why does the higher the ramp affect the speed of a car?

a ramp offsets the normal force of an object which allows gravity to have an x component relative to the object. the greater the incline the greater this effect is. A car attempting to go up a ramp will be slowed by this effect, and a car attempting to go down a ramp will be sped up by this effect.


Doase different tipe of serfaces effect the speed of a car down a ramp?

quick answer... yes generally the bumpier a surface the slower the car will go. But the change is really not a lot unless it is REALLY bumpy


Is the speed of a car on a ramp affected by the degree of the slant of the ramp?

Yes. The degree and slant of the ramp does affect the speed of the car


Does the toy car going down the ramp effect its speed?

Yes because the toy car will be forced to speed up the steeper the ramp it's like going down a hill on your bike you speed up because of OME'S law.


What is the effect of surface material on how far a toy car will roll from the bottom of a ramp?

If the surface material is smoother and slipperier, the toy car will go faster. However, if the surface material is bumpier, then the toy car will not go as far.


Can different surface textures cause a change in the speed of toy car on a ramp?

yes because the smoother the surface is, the lower the friction ( the force that makes an object stop from a movement ) therefore, according to my science textbook; the rough textures have more friction and so, the texture of ramp does affect the speed of a toy car.


Does the height of a ramp affect a toy car's speed going down it?

Yes. The height of the ramp does affect the speed going down it the higher the ramp the faster the car goes down it


Name 2 factors the affect the distance taken for a toy car to stop after rolling down a ramp?

One factor is the height of the ramp. The higher the height of the ramp the further the car travels. Another factor is the surface of the ramp. With a rough surface on the ramp e.g sand paper the car travels a short distance. With a lubricated surface on the ramp e.g Vaseline the car will travel a very long distance.


Does the type of ramp surface effect the distance the toy car will roll?

Well let's see..if one surface is tape and one is glass...nah it doesn't matter the car will roll the same.


Does changing the height of a ramp affect the speed of the car going down the ramp?

Changing the slope of the ramp will affect the speed of the vehicle going down it.
