Question

A ball rolls up an inclined plane, slows to a stop, and then rolls back down. Is the velocity constant? Explain.
No, the velocity is not constant. As the ball rolls up the inclined plane, it will slow down due to the force of gravity acting against it. As it rolls back down, it will speed up due to the force of gravity acting in the same direction as the ball's motion.
