I performed a lab using a toy car to go down a ramp that was positioned at different heights. For expample: ramp height = 60 cm, ramp length = 121.92 cm, time car took to clear the ramp from start = .67 seconds, distance car traveled from end of ramp to stopping point = 1178.56 cm, mass of car = .54 kg, based off this informatrion..... Calculate the deceleration for the car from the end of the ramp to the cars stopping point: d = (1/2) a t^2, (Correction) for this calculation d = horizontal length the car travels from the edge of the ramp to stopping.
Displacement, Velocity and Acceleration
In classical mechanics, kinematics deals with the motion of a particle. It deals only with the position, velocity, acceleration, and displacement of a particle. It has no concern about the source of motion.
Linear Displacement
The term "displacement" refers to when something shifts away from its original "location," and "linear" refers to a straight line. As a result, “Linear Displacement” can be described as the movement of an object in a straight line along a single axis, for example, from side to side or up and down. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Non-contact sensors such as LVDTs and other linear location sensors can calculate linear displacement. Linear displacement is usually measured in millimeters or inches and may be positive or negative.

Here the total distance traveled by toy car in 0.67s should be equal to the horizontal distance measured.
