Why do you go faster down a steeper incline?

Answer 1

Because with the help gravity it pulls it down. That why things go down fast.gravity and friction and momentum all play a part in why things go faster and so does energy, gravity plays a part because it pulls it down, friction plays a part because it will depend the friction on the item going down hill, momentum plays a part because the faster u go the more momentum u have, and energy plays a part because all things that move have energy and the faster u go the more energy ur creating hope that answers ur question

Answer 2

Gravity draws an object towards its strongest point. The main things holding you back are air resistance and friction. As a hill gets steeper, you are more in line with the center of gravity, so it overcomes friction and you move faster. Eventually when you are moving vertically there is no friction other than air resistance itself. At this time you will accelerate at 32 feet per second every second until you either hit something or reach terminal velocity which is around 120 mph. Air resistance (on the Earth at least) will not allow you to travel any faster.

Answer 3

• The acceleration decreases because then net resultant force decreases.

• F=ma

• This is due to an increase in air resistance at higher speeds

Answer 4

You go faster down a steeper incline because gravity pulls you downhill with a greater force, which increases your acceleration. This acceleration leads to higher speed due to the relationship between acceleration and velocity.

Answer 5

Because gravity is trying to pull it down hill...on flat ground gravity isn't pulling it either direction.

Answer 6

the temperature decreases the higher up you go up as the sun is heating the flat surface the earth (sea level) and the further away you get from a hot or warm thing the colder you get

Answer 7

This effect is due to the acceleration of gravity.

Answer 8

Because he moves faster.
