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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

vAve = ‘ds / ‘dt

vAve = 10m / 8s

vAve = 1.25m/s

v0 = 0m/s

vAve = (v0 + vf) / 2

1.25m/s = (0 + vf) / 2

vf = 2.5m/s

aAve = (vf - v0) / ‘dt

aAve = (2.5m/s - 0m/s) / 8s

aAve = 2.5m/s / 8s

aAve = 0.313m/s^2

vAve = ‘ds / ‘dt

vAve = 10m / 5s

vAve = 2m/s

v0 = 0m/s

vAve = (v0 + vf) / 2

2m/s = (0 + vf) / 2

vf = 4m/s

aAve = (vf - v0) / ‘dt

aAve = (4m/s - 0m/s) / 5s

aAve = 4m/s / 5s

aAve = 0.8m/s^2

average rate = change in acceleration / change in slope

average rate = (.8m/s^2 - .313m/s^2) / (.10 - .05)

average rate = 9.75m/s^2
