yes because Gravity is pulling it down and the heavier the mass the farther it will travel down the ramp. The heavier it is the more gravity has to pull down

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.


What Two factors that affect the distance taken for a toy car to stop?

Air resistance against the car as it travels and the friction of the wheels against the ground slows it down and so reduces the toy car's potential travelling distance The weight of the car\on the car, the slope of the ramp and the material the car lands on or on the ramp


Does the distance a toy car travels down a ramp affect its speed?

yes This is because of the fact that gravity is a measure of acceleration. The longer the car has to accelerate the faster is will be by the end.


Does the different type of surface affect the distance a ball travels?

Yes. The viscosity, smoothness, slant, hardness and other factors of the surface would affect the distance a ball would travel. For example, a ball will travel much farther down a wet aluminum slide than up a sand dune.


Does the texture of the floor affect the distance a ball travels?

yes because a rough surface may slow the ball down and a smooth syrface may let it keep going. {it also depends on the type of ball}


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.


How does the size of something affect the distance that things goes?

Yes because if it weights too much its going to go down faster than something that doesn't weight as much.


How would the distance the car travels each second change if it were slowing down?

In that case, each second the distance travelled will be less than the second before that.


What is stroke length of a pump?

The stroke length of a pump is the distance it travels up before it travels down. The distance traveling up takes in air or water depending on the type of pump. The down pressure expels the air or water.


How does the size of a toy car affect its speed?

It would affect its speed because the weight of the car is gonna slow it down


Does time slow down in space?

Time is relative to the speed of the observer and the faster an observer travels at the slower time will appear for him. So time slows down with speed not with distance.
