Velocity is measured using _____________ and ________________ of an object.

• location and acceleration

• force and speed

• speed and location

• speed and direction

Students have short and tall ramps, and toy cars with which to 

perform an investigation.

Which of the following is a testable question they could answer in an 

investigation using these materials?

• Which material should engineers 

  use for high traffic roads?

• Does the mass of the toy car affect 

  the speed at which it rolls down the ramp?

• Does the height of the ramp effect 

  the distance the toy car will travel?

• Will the length of the toy car affect the 

  distance it will  travel?
