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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : The aAve in the first situation is 0.313m/s^2 and the aAve in the second situation is 0.8m/s^2. Now I’m not quite sure how to compare this information to the slope, so here’s my try……. the difference in acceleration is 0.487m/s/s and the difference in slope is 0.05. So with that the rate of acceleration is changing 0.487m/s^2 for every .05 change in the slope (or 9.74m/s^2 for a slope change of 1…. I think).
