Potential and Kinetic energy problem!
im still stuck on the assignment: is the potential energy of a marble at the top of a ramp the same as the kinetic energy of the marble at the bottom of the ramp. I don't know the co-efficient of friction of wood but our teacher has told us keywords, they are: PREDICTIONS, measure the length the ball travels after its traveled down the ramp, FINAL VELOCITY and SEARCH DEEPER. so i have no idea what he's talking about
?
we have measured height of the ramp and different times for the marble, can anyone tell me how i would measure final velocity? I am really confused, and what does he mean by search deeper?
