Hello everyone. I have a problem that i'm stumped on right now. In my engineering class i am supposed to be able to figure out how far a 1inch steel ball bearing will roll along the ground after releasing it down an incline track. So far, i have recorded numerous time trials through laser gates using gate modes and pulse modes. Where should i start? I was thinking i should find the velocity of the ball and then use that in an acceleration equation, but then what?? how do i find the distance it will travel with that information?? thanks in advance.
