It doesn't as far as the car itself is concerned. If the car travels 100 miles on a straight road or the same amount on a curvy road the car still travels 100 miles even though on the curvy road it may have only traveled 80 miles as measured in a straight line.

Name 2 factors the affect the distance taken for a toy car to stop after rolling down a ramp?

One factor is the height of the ramp. The higher the height of the ramp the further the car travels. Another factor is the surface of the ramp. With a rough surface on the ramp e.g sand paper the car travels a short distance. With a lubricated surface on the ramp e.g Vaseline the car will travel a very long distance.
