If a ball is sliding down a ramp that is on a slant, so that the ball sliding down falls off. Is the speed of the ball constant(meaning staying at the same speed)? or Speeding up?
If so, how?

If i understand correctly, you mead that a the ball is in free fall after running off of the end of a ramp.
That would mean that in the vertical direction the ball will accelerate (speed up) because of the force of gravity. In the horizontal direction it will have a constant speed because there is nor force acting in the X direction once the ball is off of the ramp.
