Suppose the ski patrol lowers a rescue sled carrying an injured skier, with a combined mass of 97.5 kg, down a 60.0-degree slope

at a constant speed, as shown in the Figure. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and snow is 0.100.
a) How much work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill?
b) How much work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance?
c) What is the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled?
d) What is the net work done on the sled, in joules?

a. 1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b.21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c. 23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled d. The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.

       

<h3>What is friction work?</h3>

The work done by friction is the force of friction times the distance traveled times the cosine of the angle between the friction force and displacement

a. How much work is done by friction as the sled moves 28m along the hill?

ans. We use the formula:

friction work = -µ.mg.dcosθ

  = -0.100 * 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * cos 60

= -1337.3 J

-1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b. How much work is done by the rope on the sled in this distance?

We use the formula:

Rope work = -m.g.d(sinθ - µcosθ)

rope work = - 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m (sin 60 – 0.100 * cos 60)

                     = 26,754 (0.816)

                     = 21,835 J

21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c.  What is the work done by the gravitational force on the sled?

By using  the formula:

Gravity work = mgdsinθ

                    = 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * sin 60

                    = 23,170 J

23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled .

       

D. What is the total work done?

By adding all the values

work done =  -1337.3 + 21,835 + 23,170

                 = 43,670 J

The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.

A parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance of 10 to the power -9. What potential difference is required for a charge of 5×
Maurinko [17]

The potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

<h3>What is the energy in a capacitor?</h3>

The energy stored in a capacitor is an electrostatic potential energy.

It is related to the charge(Q) and voltage (V) between the capacitor plates.

It is represented as 'U'.

<h3>How to determine the potential difference</h3>

Formula:

Potential difference, V is the ratio of the charge to the capacitance of a capacitor.

It is calculated using:

V = Q ÷ C

Where Q = charge 5 × 10∧-5C and C = capacitance 10∧-9

Substitute the values into the equation

Potential difference, V = 5 × 10∧-5 ÷  10∧-9 = 5 × 10∧4 volts

<h3>How to determine the energy stored</h3>

Formula:

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 (QV)

Where Q= charge and V = potential difference across the capacitor

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 ( 5 × 10∧-5 × 5 × 10∧4)

= 0.5 × 25 × 10∧-1

= 0.5 × 2.5

= 1. 25 Joules

Therefore, the potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules
