Roll various pairs of objects
simultaneously
down the inclined plane to show which ones reach the bottom first.
Roll different solid spheres to show
that
velocity is independent of mass and radius.
Show that velocity depends on mass
distribution
by rolling two non-uniform cylinders of the same mass and radius down
the
incline. One cylinder has a lead core and wooden shell, the other
has a wooden core and lead shell.
Race the hoop, cylinder and sphere
of the
same radius.
NOTES
Prop board on box and clamp hinged
piece of
metal to cart.
Place sandbox where the nonuniform
cylinders
will land in it and mark height from which they should be rolled.
