Speed is part of kinetic energy ... KE = 1/2 mv2 ( v is velocity, speed). Kinetic energy can be converted to potential energy, if done properly. Height is a factor of PE. PE = mgh (h is height). So an increase in KE, more speed, can be transformed into more height.

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


Does the height of a car affect a car's speed?

The cross sectional area of a car is dependent on its height. As the area changes the drag on the car, it is likely that increasing the height of a car will also reduce its top speed. There are many other factors that affect a car's maximum speed so a change in height may not always result in a change in top speed.


How does the height of a ramp affect the speed of a rolling object?

At the bottom of the ramp, the higher the ramp the faster the speed, ignoring frictionl forces The speed varies as the square root of the height


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.

Does the height of a ramp affect the speed of a marble?

Yes.The higher the ramp the faster.


How does height affect potential energy and kinetic energy?

Height directly affects gravitational potential energy, since this energy is equal to mgh (mass x gravity x height). Height does not affect kinetic energy, which depends on the speed, not on the height. Except indirectly - for example, if an object is falling down, its speed will usually increase.


Does height effects speed?

The altitude at which an aircraft is travelling does affect its speed because the thinner atmosphere causes less aerodynamic drag.


Does height affect how fast you run?

Yes, long legs help to increase running speed.
