A ball on a ramp starts at the top and takes 3.01 seconds to travel down the ramp. The ramp is 2m long and the flat is 3 m long. Ignore friction, what is the balls acceleration down the ramp?

Answer 1

Hi Emma J.

That's a straight calculation problem. You need to memorize the basic equations for motion!

This one is d = (1/2) a t^2 . You have 2 of the 3 values, just plug in and solve!
