Abstract Similar to roller-coaster motion‚ this experiment analyzes the relationship between the kinetic energy of a wooden block and the distance a mass falls. Based on the results‚ the block’s kinetic energy and velocity increase with the falling distance‚ as predicted. But little changes in velocity near the end of the motion show that friction and other factors might be important. The block’s maximum velocity ranged from 0.869 to 1.193 m/s at different falling distances‚ and its resulting kinetic
