ball down ramp

Your work on ball down ramp has been received and looks very good.

Please let me know if you have any questions related to this orientation assignment.

I think the time required to roll the length of the ramp will be least for the steepest ramp, because the ball will have more velocity rolling down the steepest ramp, opposed to the not as steep ramps.

The time intervals would decrease becsue the steeper the slope, the faster the ball will roll.

Trial 1: .984 Trial 2: 1.031 Trial 3: .922 Trial 4: 1.063 Trial 5: 1.031

Trial 1: 1.766 Trial 2: 1.516 Trial 3: 1.594 Trial 4: 1.672 Trial 5: 1.600

I was thinking the ball was not going to roll as fast we we shortened the steepness of the ramp. I thought the ball would roll faster down a steeper ramp. Trial 1: .844 Trial 2: .842 Trail 3: .800 Trial 4: .859 Trial 5: .688

Trial 1: 1.469 Trial 2: 1.719 Trial 3: 1.484 Trial 4: 1.625 Trial 5: 1.484

Trial 1: .969 Trial 2: 1.000 Trial 3: 1.094 Trial 4: .984 Trial 5: 1.109

Trial 1: 1.703 Trial 2: 1.609 Trial 3: 1.547 Trial 4: 1.578 Trial 5: 1.547

Yes, my results do support the hypotheses I stated earlier regarding the relationship between time intervals and slopes. By comparing all the data colleced, it can be concluded that the ball rolls faster down a steeper slope and slower down a lesser slope.

The steeper the slope, the faster the ball will roll down it due to the build-up of potential energy behind the domino. When the ramp is steeper, the ball has more potential energy. The displacement and time required to roll down the ramp significantly changes as the angle of the ramp is moved up and down.

The concepts of displacements and time are brought together to formulate the concept of velocity. The more velocity a skier has going a hill, the greater is his displacement per unit of time. The same idea relates to the ball rolling down the ramp.

Consult the physics book and ask for feedback from the professor. I could also run the tests again to double check myself.
