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

1st automobile:

Ds = v0 * dt + .5a * dt2

Ds = 10 m

Dt = 8s

V0 = 0 m/s

Slope = .05

10m = .5 (a) * 82

10 m = 32 (a)

A = .3125 m/s/s

.3125 m/s/s / .05 = 6.25 m/s/s

2nd automobile

Ds = v0 * dt + .5a * dt2

Ds = 10 m

Dt = 5 s

V0 = 0 m/s

Slope = .1

10 m = .5 (a) * 25

10 m = 12.5 (a)

A = .8 m/s/s / .1 = 8 m/s/s
