Friction Test

At Tauriko Primary School my class and I decided to do a friction test. We tested many things such as riding bikes in sand, sliding down slides on different things and toy cars on different substances. First we decided to test the bikes. For that we had to ride through sand bark etc and see how far the bike got. I forgot the measurements but I know that the bark one won. Next we did the toy car test we had a ramp with sandpaper on it and a ramp with no sandpaper on it both at the same hight. We tested how much slower the sandpaper made the car I forgot how much but it was still a cool test. Then we went to memorial park and tested the slide. We had a sack and normal clothes and timed how fast we went down the slide. We did it a few times and the sack ended up going faster then the normal clothes.
