Your 'ball down ramp' report has been received. Scroll down through the document to see any comments I might have inserted, and my final comment at the end.
** Your general comment **
** Will a steeper ramp give greater or lesser time? **
The greater the slope the faster the ball will reach the bottom.
** As slopes increases will time intervals increase, decrease or show no pattern? **
.02,.04,.06 i figure the time to decrease

** Do your results support or fail to support your hypothesis about increasing or decreasing times? **
My results tend to favor my hypotheses other than the obvious human errors involved.
** How do you think ave velocity is related to slope? **
the average velocity increses as the slope increase.
** Speculate on why ave velocity changes with slope. **
the effects of gravity cause average velocity to incease with slope.
** How could you test your speculations? **
more trials with different hieghts and objects
