The input variable is the height of the ramp, so I will keep everything the same except this factor. I predict that the steeper the ramp the faster the marble will travel. I will measure the time the marble takes to travel the full length of the one metre ramp three times then from these measurements I will take an average. I will then work out the speed in metres per second (m/s), by dividing the distance by the time. This graph helps to show my prediction; as the height of the ramp increases so will the speed of the marble. List of Apparatus ? Books (to vary the height of the ramp) ? Ramp ? Marble ? Ruler (to measure the height of the ramp) ? Stopwatch (to...
