An investigation was carried out involving a metal toy car being released on inclined planes of the same length but of differing heights. The height of the inclined plane was changed using wooden blocks stacked on top of each other to elevate the plane. Table 1 shows the number of blocks used and the time taken for the toy car to reach the base of the inclined plane. (a) What is the aim of this investigation? _____________________________________________________________

(b) State an inference based on the observation obtained from this investigation _______________________________________________________________ (c) In this investigation, state the thing that is: (i) (ii) (d) changed : _________________________________ measured : _______________________________

State the things that are kept the same in this investigation. ________________________________________________________________
