Bouncing Ball Ramp

Introduction

This project shows how gravity and bouncing balls can create motion.

The balls roll down a ramp, bounce into a box, and keep moving for a while before stopping.

Materials

1. Tinkercad
2. Physics Simulation
3. Rectangles
4. Spheres

Create a large rectangle for the floor.

Add walls around it to make a box.

Set all parts of the box to Static.

Create another rectangle above the box.

Tilt it to make a ramp.

Set the ramp to Static.

Place several spheres above the ramp.

Keep the balls Dynamic so they can move and bounce.

Press Start Simulation.

Watch the balls:

1. Fall down
2. Bounce on the ramp
3. Drop into the box
4. Bounce around the walls

How It Works

Gravity pulls the balls down.

The ramp changes their direction.

The walls keep the balls inside the box.

The balls lose energy over time and eventually stop moving.

Conclusion

This simple design uses gravity, collisions, and bouncing to create motion in a fun way.
