What is gravity?
You want to conduct an experiment with a simple machine. First, you make an inclined plane by placing a book under one end of a ruler. Next, you will place a marble in the groove of the ruler at the top of the incline. Then, you will release the marble and measure the distance it travels. How could you increase the distance traveled by the marble?
