Hot Wheels Lab: Part 1
LT: I can identify evidence that gravity is an accelerating force.
We use a team of students to determine whether a Hot Wheels car accelerates as it moves down an incline. We identify the position of the car at the 1, 2, and 3 second interval and then measure the distance the car traveled for each interval. A minimum of five trials are conducted, averaged, and then graphed.
