A cart is rolling down a ramp if the angle of the ramp is increased to make the ramp steeper the cart will do what?

The cart will go faster if the angle increases.


Why does a car go faster if a ramp is steeper?

It will go faster because if you have a small/non-steep ramp the car will go slow and the ending point wont be that far, but if you have a ramp that is bigger/steeper the car will go faster and the ending point will be far.


How does the angle of a ramp affect the distance a toy car will travel?

the steeper the ramp, the farther the car goes. if your ramp is flatter, it won't go as far.


Which statement is an obervation if the ramp is steeper then the ball will roll faster or friction slowed the ball down or gravity caused the ball's motion?

"If the ramp is steeper than the ball will roll faster" can be observed during experiments. "Friction slowed the ball down" and "Gravity caused the ball's motion" are both conjectures (guesses).


How will the angle of the ramp affect the speed of the marble?

if its steeper it'll go faster


How do you increase the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane?

the formula for the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is the length divide by the height.


What is the maximum slope for a car ramp?

it depends...a ramp with transitions at top and bottom can be steeper than one without, because severe change in slope can cause the vehicle to bottom out.


Why does the distance of a toy car increase when the height of the ramp is increased?

The car experiences greater acceleration from a steeper incline (i.e. you added energy to the system by raising the ramp). The car can then go further due to the increased force (F=ma).


Does the toy car going down the ramp effect its speed?

Yes because the toy car will be forced to speed up the steeper the ramp it's like going down a hill on your bike you speed up because of OME'S law.


If a car is rolled down a ramp would the car travel further if it is steeper?

Yes it would. That was exactly Galileo's experiment, except that he didn't use cars.


Is the inside of a spiral parking ramp steeper than the outside?

Yes. Consider two circles, one inside the other with the same center point. Both circles change in elevation equally, however, the inner circle has a smaller circumference than the outer circle. Thus the inner circle has a shorter distance to travel the same amount of rise as the outer circle, resulting in a steeper slope.


Which has a greater mechianical advantage short ramp and a long ramp both reach a height of 1m?

The long ramp.
