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.

The angular quantities: angular displacement, angular velocity, angular acceleration, are defined in a very similar way to the l
Lena [83]

Answer: [tex]12.415 rad.s^{-1}[/tex]

Explanation: Angular velocity is the rate of change in angular displacement.

We know that:

Angular velocity,      \omega= \frac{\Delta \theta}{t}....................(1)

where:

  • t= time
  • \Delta \theta = angular displacement in radians

<u>Given that:</u>

  • t = 4.10 s
  • Δθ = 50.9 radian

Putting the respective values in eq. (1)

\omega = \frac{50.9}{4.10}

\omega = 12.415 rad.s^{-1}

Will you still get tan with sunscreen on
WARRIOR [948]
No, wearing sunscreen won't let you tan. The whole purpose of sunscreen is to protect your skin from sun rays. You can start to become tan if you dont have much sunscreen on - its happened to me.

Bob wanted to investigate the effects of plant fertilizer. He bought three identical plants and gave plant 1 fertilizer every mo
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

TIME he applied the fertilizer to each plant

Explanation:

Independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is subject to change or manipulation by the experimenter. In this experiment, Bob wanted to investigate the effects of plant fertilizer. Bob sets up the experiment by applying the fertilizer to each plant at DIFFERENT TIMES i.e. plant 1-every morning, plant 2-once a week, plant 3-never.

Based on this, it is obvious that the independent or manipulated variable is the TIME at which he applied the fertilizer. On the other hand, the dependent or measured variable is the height of the plants.

11) A sled is initially given a shove up a frictionless 35º incline. It reaches a maximum height of 2.5
Andrej [43]

Answer:

7 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem you must use the conservation of energy.

K1 +U1=K2+U2

That math speak for, initial kinetic energy plus initial potential energy equals final kinetic energy plus final potential energy.

The initial PE (potential energy) is 0 because it hasn't been raised in the air yet. The final KE (kinetic energy) is 0 because it isn't moving. This gives the following:

KE1= \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}}

PE2=mgh

K1=U2

\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} =mgh

Solve for v

v=\sqrt{2gh}

Input known values and you get 7 m/s.
