Which Battery caused the parked car to move further? Use your data... F=MA Mass = Weight of battery Acceleration = Acceleration of Parked Car

How did the height of the ramp affect the movement of the parked car? Use potential energy and kinetic energy in your response. Measure the height of the ramp, mass of the batteries, and determine the Potential Energy. PE=mgh

How did the resistance to force (washers) affect the movement of the parked car?

What should you be aware of as many of you will start driving shortly? F=ma
