Mason built a ramp. He put car A at the bottom of the ramp and released car B from the

top of the ramp, as shown.

Describe two energy transfers that happen when car A and car B collide.

• Some energy is transferred from car B to car A.

• Cars will crash.

• Mason will hear a banging sound.

• Some energy is transferred to the air [which results in sound and the air being heated].
