hat effect does the height of a ramp have on the velocity (kinetic energy) of an object rolling down it? Independent Variable:Dependent Variable:
1 answer
The height of the ramp (independent variable) will have an impact on the velocity or kinetic energy (dependent variable) of an object rolling down it. As the height of the ramp increases, the object will gain more potential energy due to gravity, which will convert into kinetic energy as the object rolls down the ramp. This increase in potential energy will result in a higher velocity for the object as it rolls down the ramp. In other words, the higher the ramp, the greater the velocity of the object rolling down it.
