STEM Forces and Machines - Ramps and Cars
Forces, Motion, and Machines! In this STEM activity students will build ramps and test how the height of a ramp and can affect the distance the car travels. Extension ideas leave opportunities for students to design their own experiment and also test how the weight of the car may affect the speed and distance traveled. Students should be given some time to experiment with their ramp and car by increasing or decreasing the ramp height. In the extension activity students will need to add wei
