IPS: Lab Summative: Kinetic & Potential and types of Energy Lab

According to the Kinetic & Potential Energy Lab instructions, what should be done after placing 2 books under the ramp?

• Measure the distance the ball travels

• Start the stopwatch and record the time

• Place one ball at the top of the ramp and release it

• Record the new height of the ramp on the data table

What is the purpose of starting the stopwatch according to the lab procedure?

• To measure the time it takes for the ball to stop completely

• To record the time from when the ball comes off the ramp until it hits the table

• To determine the time it takes for the ball to reach the end of the meter stick

• To calculate the speed of the ball as it travels down the ramp
