Racing to Measure If you send a toy car down a ramp at what ramp angle will the car travel the farthest when it hits the ground? Use your protractor and your tape measure to find out. Start by setting up a series of ramps at different angles. Make sure each ramp is securely positioned to ensure accurate and repeatable results. Measure and record the angle of each ramp using your protractor. Next, release the toy car from the top of each ramp and let it travel down and off the end. Use your tape measure to record the distance the car travels from the end of the ramp to the point where it first contacts the ground. Repeat this process several times for each angle to ensure consistency and reliability in your measurements. Analyze your data to determine which ramp angle allowed the toy car to travel the farthest distance. You may find that there is an optimal angle that provides the best balance of speed and trajectory for maximum travel distance. This experiment will help you understand the principles of physics, such as gravity, friction, and motion, that influence the car’s performance.
