Toy Car Physics

Toy cars have been played with by children for many years. Would one wonder the way a model or toy car rolls down a hill? One would think it would be because it has wheels, this is true but there is more to a car rolling downhill than it having wheels. Gravity is the force that is keeping all things on the ground. The heavier an object is the more gravity has an effect on its momentum. If you put a toy car on a downhill slope it will begin to roll because of gravity. The more the car weighs will affect how fast and how far the car will roll Gravity is the force where two objects pull towards each other. Everything has a gravitational pull. That is why things fall. Earth’s gravitational pull is pulling us and all objects towards it. Gravity’s
This other force is gravity, when the car goes downhill gravity is pulling it down
If there were three cars one weighed five grams, one weighed ten grams, and the last one weighed one gram. If the three went downhill one would go farther. Because of momentum and the gravity pulling it down this would cause the heavier car to go farther. When the momentum and gravity pull down on the heavier object it causes the car to have a higher speed than the others therefore making go farther. The car that weighs the most will go farther because it has a higher speed and momentum. Gravity has a huge effect on the way a toy car rolls downhill or down a slope. The cars mass, velocity, acceleration have an effect to. Acceleration is the rate at which an object speeds up. The car’s acceleration point is during the middle of the slope. Momentum ,which is how strong a moving thing is, happens also in the middle of the slope or hill. As the toy car falls it accelerates and picks up momentum. During this whole process gravity is at work. Gravity is pulling the car down the slope. The velocity is the speed it is going in that
