- Hi there, I need some help. Can anyone walk me through how to complete this problem? I have tried working this out 4 times and each time was wrong. I don't know what I'm doing incorrectly! Entrance and exit ramps for freeways are often circular stretches of road. As you go around one at a constant speed, you will experience a constant acceleration. Suppose you drive through an entrance ramp at a modest speed and your acceleration is 3.0 m/s^2. What will be the acceleration if you double your speed?arrow_forward24.
