<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>
Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ramps.Which statement is TRUE?
answer choices
Marble 1 has a faster speed than Marble 2.
Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.
Both the marbles travel at the same speed.
There is not enough data to compare the speeds of marbles.
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.
Option B.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>The speed is defined as the distance covered per unit time. Here in the question, 2 balls cover equal distances in same time.
Time taken by the ball = 10 seconds.
Distance covered by 1st ball = 20 cm.
Distance covered by 2nd ball = 3cm.
So speed of the 1st ball = 2cm/sec.
Speed of the 2nd ball = 3 cm /sec.
So,it's very much evident that speed of 2nd Marble is much higher than the speed of the 1st marble.
