Does the starting position of a ball on a ramp affect the distance it travels?

Yes, it does. The further up a ball is placed on a ramp, the greater the distance the ball travels. If launched from a lower starting position, then the ball shall travel a shorter distance. This is all true under Newton's second law, which states that Force = mass * acelaration(F= m*a). If the ball has to move something, i.e. a cup, then the rule applies as well.

- Does the air pressure of different balls effect the distance?
does air pressure affect the distance a soccer ball travels
Why does density affect distance?
less density means you will not be able to give the ball momentum, but to little causes the object to fall quickly
How does increasing the mass of an object affect the distance the object travels?
In zero gravity, the mass of an object does not effect the distance an object travels at all unless there is a constent force acting upon it. However, if it is in contact with another object, and gravity is what keeps the 2 or more objects touching each other, then mass will effect the distance it travels because of friction.
What can change distance an object travels?
The formula for the distance traveled (assuming a constant speed) is:distance = time x speed So, any of the two factors on the right side of the equation will affect the distance.
What is most likely to affect the distance sound travels before it can no longer be heard?
That would be the hearing sensitivity of the person trying to hear the sound.
How does distance and time affect the speed at which something travels?
Because distance/time = the speed at which something travels.
How does the size of the paper plane affect the distance it fly's?
The size of the paper does affect the distance it travels, but it also makes it heavier.
Does the temperature of the golf ball affect the distance it travels?
yeah totally
Does playing rock music affect the distance a mealworm travels?

Does the distance a toy car travels up a ramp affect its speed?
Yes.
- Does the air pressure of different balls effect the distance?
does air pressure affect the distance a soccer ball travels
Does stitching effect the distance of a soccer ball?
No this is simply to hold the ball together, it does not affect the distance the ball travels in any way.
Does the size of an object affect the distance it travels?
i don't know y don't u tell me
Why does density affect distance?
less density means you will not be able to give the ball momentum, but to little causes the object to fall quickly
Does force affect how far an object travels?
Distance is measured in meters, wind resistance does not come into it
How does the length of a car affect the distance a car travels down a ramp?
In terms of physics, the length makes no difference.
Will the pressure in a soccer ball affect the distance it travels when kicked?
Yes, it depends how hard or soft you kick the soccer ball
