PS2.3 Newton's 1st Law TCAP Review

What conclusion can be made based on the data?

• Increasing the height of the ramp has no impact on the distance the toy car travels in any of the trials.

• Increasing the height of the ramp increases the distance the toy car travels in all of the trials.

• Increasing the height of the ramp decreases the distance the toy car travels in all of the trials.

• Increasing the height of the ramp increases the distance the toy car travels for half of the trials.
