Why is it more difficult to go up a slope than coming down?
To ascend a slope, you have to overcome the force of gravity that is pulling down on you. Coming down a slope, gravity will tend to accelerate your descent (as it would when sliding down a hill). Although you still have to lift your feet from the ground (opposing gravity) if you are walking, you do not have to lift your body through the entire step, as you do when going uphill.
When the right side point is lower than the left side point what is the sign of the slope?
The sign of the slope is negative because going from left to right the slope decreases or goes down. If the slope were to increase or go up, the sign would be positive. Hope I helped! SLS
What can of soda would go faster an empty one or one that is full?
If you roll it on its side down a slight slope, the full can would go faster because it has more weight.
Do atoms with many electron shells let go of their electrons easier than fewer shells?
More the number of shells in an atom, more away will be the electrons from the nucleus. Hence, weaker will be the attraction between nucleus and outermost electrons. So atom with more shells will let go their electrons easier than atoms with fewer shells.
How is infiltration affected by the slope of the land?
The slope of the land makes the water go downhill faster, giving it less time to saturate into the ground, so less will get into the ground
Why is it easier to go down the slope than up the slope?
Gravity helps you move down the slope but works against you on the way up.

Which of the following are the correct properties of slope?
A.Lines that are equally steep should have the same slope.B.The slope of a steep line should be bigger than the slope of a flat line.D.Lines that go up from left to right should have a positive slope.E.Lines that go down from left to right should have a negative slope.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------B.The slope of a flat line should be close to 0.C.The slope of a flat line is smaller than the slope of a steep line.E.A negative slope means that the line moves down from left to right
Why should cat food go faster on a slope than soup?
Soup just draaaaiiiiins its way down, slowly, while a ball of catfood rolls down the slope quite quickly.

Why do coyotes go after colts?
Coyotes go after colts mostly because they know they will be easier to take down than the larger animals.
How do you know when to go up or down on a slope?
If the y value in Y/X is a negative.
How do you show the sequence of steps in calculating the slope of the line?
As you go from reading the given information to knowing the slope of the line, just write down each thing you do.
What does slope have to do with distance?
The slope distance, like walking up a hill, is always longer than the horizontal distance. A map shows horizontal (flat) distance and does not take onto account the extra distance to go up and down from one point to another.
How does gravity affect cycling?
Towards the center of the Earth. Really. Down, basically. If you're trying to go uphill, you'll get pulled backwards. If you're going downhill, you'll get pulled forwards, because of the slope of the hill and the action of the wheels.
How do you figure out the slope of a line when the y-intercept is -1?
If you had a problem like this... y=3x-1 you would go down 1 point on the graph and point it then go up three and over one as the slope.
