Why does a toy car rolling at constant speed down a straight incline track slow down when reaching the base of the incline?

i think this happens due to friction between the ground and the toy car :)

A ball rolling down an incline has its minimum speed?
The minimum speed for a ball rolling down an incline occurs near the top. Gravity will speed the ball up as it travels down.
Which will have the greater acceleration rolling down an incline plane- a large ball or a small ball?
If they are both solid, and the incline is the same, the rate of acceleration will be the same.
Is a ball rolling in a straight line at a constant speed in equilibrium?
Yes. Because it is moving at a constant speed, we know that it is not accelerating (changing its speed). This means that all forces acting on it are balancing each other, so the net force is 0.
If a ball is rolling in a straight line and you push it to the right velocity Will?
If a ball is rolling in a straight line and you push it to the right velocity will accelerate.
What is an example of constant motion?
A ball rolling at a constant speed at the same rate of speed on a still surface.

Descrbe a real world situation where there is zero acceleration but some velocity.?
-- a car on cruise control rolling along at a constant speed on a straight section of highway -- a golf ball or squash ball rolling across the gym floor at a constant speed
What pharohs' tombs were built using the incline plane and rolling pins?
Ospahe

After rolling halfway down an incline a marble's kinetic energy is?
The same as it's potential energy
With your car drive select in PARK on an incline and the emergency brake off what keeps from rolling backwards?
the transmission
What is a solid that has 1 flat surface and can roll?
A cone. If your definition of rolling includes the motion of a cone down an incline.

What did Galileo discover while under house arrest?
He developed a hypothesis for the motion of physics by using a ball and an incline. He found that when a ball rolls down an incline, it accelerates towards the bottom of the incline. When a ball rolls up an incline, it decelerates. And when a ball is on a flat surface, it moves at a constant speed because a force acts downwards in the vertical direction. As Newton discovered after Galileo died, this particular force is gravity. It is also the force responsible for the acceleration and deceleration of a ball while rolling down and rolling up an incline, respectively.On a double incline, Galileo found that a ball returns to the same vertical height that it was released from. (see what a double incline is, and you'll get it)Also, he found that neither the angle nor the total distance travelled of a rolling ball matters, only vertical height.So in contrast to Aristotle's previous theory that the natural state of objects is at rest, Galileo discovered that the proper state of motion is not at rest, but to continue in its current state of motion. Galileo's experiments with the motion of balls is the basis for Newton's law of inertia (or his first law of motion).
Which will have the greater rolling down an incline- a hoop or a solid disk?
The disk because it has a lower moment of inertia for a given mass.
