That depends on the friction, or grip, between your feet and the surface you are standing on. Its a battle between gravity and friction. If you are in bare feet on ice, mud, or wet grass or clay, gravity wins and you take a tumble. If you are wearing hiking boots on rock, stone, or any surface with a little friction, friction wins.

The answer depends on the incline (slope) of the slide. And, if you want a more realistic answer, a measure of the friction between the child and the slide.

NOBODY know for sure! Some say it is because the word slope used to be called a modulus and m is for modulus, but that has not been proven. Many historians have tried to answer this question, but all their theories have been proven false. You can come up with many other reasons, but I would not go down that slippery slope. ---Addendum to answer: Descartes was french. In french, monter means "to climb." Most websites will cite this as the reason that m stands for slope. M stands for slope for either the reason that it stands for the original word modulus of slope, or the French word monter, meaning to climb, but no one really knows for sure. B does not stand for anything due to the fact that in math terms- a, b, and c are usually used for constants while x, y, and z are variables, and m, n, and p are parameters. - Paladin89
