RESEARCH QUESTION: Does increasing the height of the slope make the car move faster? RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS: By increasing the height of the slope, the car will move faster. MATERIALS: A toy car, a board and a stopwatch. .

RESEARCH PROCEDURE: The board was placed on stairs. The car was pushed down the slope then the time it took the car to move from the top to the bottom of the slope was recorded. The slope was raised one step higher and the process was repeated 6 times

Speed of Car = Slope = Gradient= 0.75m/1.6s =0.5m/s
CONCLUSION: The higher the slope, the faster the car moves.
Thank you.
