Effect of acceleration on the speed Video Demonstration by ETD and NUS 2009

Effect of acceleration on the speed...

Which ball will reach the end of the track in a shorter time than the other?

Both balls moves with the same initial velocity

Green ball about to accelerate along the curve slope whenas the red ball is still moving the same roughly horizontal track

What did you notice? The green ball is ahead in terms of x direction. Explain possible reason(s) why.

What did you notice here? The green ball is still ahead in terms of x direction while its velocity is lower but still higher than the red ball's.

What did you notice here? The green ball is clearly still ahead in terms of x direction while its velocity is roughtly equal to the red ball's.&nb! sp;
hint: think in terms of the area under the graph of v vs t equal to change in displacement.

Post your answers in the comments!!
