How does slope (number of books) affect the can's movement down the ramp?
The more books used, the higher the can starts on the ramp. More height of the ground contributes to how much gravity would act upon the can. If there is more height, the can will roll down the ramp faster. For example, if there are 4 books, the can will roll down the ramp at a higher speed than if the ramp was supported by only 2 books because gravity will act upon the can greater at a higher altitude. |
