Inquiry 3: Change in Height on a Ramp Introduction: This experiment studied the effects of changing the height of a ramp on a wheeled cart. The first question one encounters with this experiment is how will the change in height effect the cart. Well it is obvious that the cart, as all objects on earth, have the force a gravity to deal with. If the cart was on a flat surface then the force of gravity …showed first 75 words of 611 total…

For example, at 5m the final velocity will be about 5.24 m/second. This equation will only apply to a ramp at 11.2? though. This inquiry uses many variables, which increases the chance of mistake. There are many other variables that can be isolated and studied to make sure that a premise, the equation, is right.
