Seed 7.2
An automobile rolls 10 meters down a constant incline with slope .05 in 8 seconds, starting from rest. The same automobile requires 5 seconds to roll the same distance down an incline with slope .10, again starting from rest.
• At what average rate is the automobile's acceleration changing with respect to the slope of the incline?
answer/question/discussion: aAVE =10-0 / 8-5 = 10/ 3 = approx. 3.3 m/s,
With respect to the slope would you have to divide the aAVE by each given slope to determine how much it was changing or not?

You haven't calculated accelerations correctly.
