Cars

September 10, 2013

There are some things to learn about cars and friction.
Squeezing the wheels close to the beams creates so much friction the car will not go down a ramp.



Cars can also use the potential energy from gravity by placing a weight connect to the wheel axle

high up and letting it drop.

A drop car goes with the energy stored from a high weight.
