How does incline affect speed?
Incline affects speed by causing it to increase or decrease. For example, if something is traveling up the incline, its speed will decrease. If something is traveling down the incline, its speed will generally increase.
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.
How does a ramp reduce force?
Moving up an incline requires extra energy to counter the force of gravity.
The ball rolling down an incline has its maximum potential energy at what point?
At the top, since potential energy is referred to an objects location, the highest the object the highest its potential energy.
What is the relationship between the length of a ramp and the speed at the bottom?
The Object moving down the Ramp will have its POTENTIAL Energy (Speed=0) at the top of the Ramp changed to Kinetic Energy as it travels DOWN the Ramp. For any given INCLINE the LENGTH of the Ramp will dictate its HEIGHT. The higher the top of the ramp, the greater the Potential Energy to be Converted into Kinetic Energy. The Formula for K.E. is : K.E. = 1/2 Mass x Velocity2 (the 2 means Squared) So as the Potential Energy increases so does the Kinetic Energy. while the Mass is a Constant. Therefore the Velocity MUST increase as well to balance the K.E. equation.
When traveling up or down a ramp or incline with a loaded fork truck which way should load be?
load facing up incline
What is an Egyptian ramp?
An Egyptian ramp is a ramp with a platform in the middle to reduce the incline of the ramp and/or to change the direction of incline.
Is a ramp a incline plane?
yes it is
How does incline affect speed?
Incline affects speed by causing it to increase or decrease. For example, if something is traveling up the incline, its speed will decrease. If something is traveling down the incline, its speed will generally increase.
How does an incline plane multiply speed?
By moving down the ramp it picks up speed producing more kinetic energy reducing the potential energy. As it goes down farther the more the speed increases until the load reaches the bottom of the incline plane(ramp).
What do you call an incline for a wheelchair?
ramp
How is the ma of a ramp increased?
By reducing the incline angle.
A student is conducting an experiment to determine how far a ball will roll down a ramp based on the angle of incline. What are three possible controls for this experiment?
The material of the ramp, the volume of the ball, and the mass of the ball.
What is a sentence for incline?
My inclination is that people talk a lot including my friend.
What is a example of a incline plane?
the answer is a man bringing up a ramp from a car
Why is a chisel an incline plane?
An incline plane is a wedge or ramp. When you look at a chisel you'll notice it is wedge shaped at the tip so it can cut. A knife is also an incline plane.
Why does the higher the ramp affect the speed of a car?

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.
