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

v_ave_1=10m/8s = 1.25 m/s so ‘dv = 2.50 m/s a_1=2.50 m/s / 8 s = 0.3125 m/s^2

v_ave_2 = 10m/5s = 2 m/s so ‘dv=4 m/s a_2= 4m/s / 5 s = 0.8 m/s^2

Average rate of changing acceleration with respect to time implies ‘da/change in slope(m) so ‘da/’dm = (a_2 - a_1)/(m_2 - m_1) = (0.8 m/s^2 - 0.3125 m/s^2)/(0.10 - 0.05) = 0.4875 m/s^2 / 0.05 = 9.75 m/s^2

Good.

Note that it is possible your force experiment was submitted with this document, instead of separately. If so, this might be an error on your part, but it could also be an error in the website's handling of the form.

Either way, if you did submit that experiment, please submit it again. If you don't have a copy let me know, and let me know on what date you submitted it.
