The skater need to start 7.525 meter high.

Let,

The skater need to start on a previous incline at height = h.

Mass of the skater = m

Given, height of the loop = 6.1 meter.

Radius of the loop; r = 6.1/2 meter = 3.05 meter.

Let to make it up and around a loop that is 6.1meters high, the man required minimum velocity v on the highest point of the loop.

So, centripetal force at highest point = weight of the man

⇒ mv²/r = mg

⇒ v = √(gr)

Then, potential energy of the skater at height h is = mgh.

And, minimum energy of the skater at the highest point of the loop is = potential energy + minimum kinetic energy.

= mg(2r) + 1/2 mv²

= 2mgr + 1/2 mgr

= 5/2 mgr

According to conservation of energy,

potential energy of the skater at height h = minimum energy of the skater at the highest point of the loop

⇒ mgh = 5/2 mgr

⇒ h = 5/2 r =( 5/2 )× 3.05 meter = 7.525 meter.

Hence, required height is 7.525 meter.

A spring stretches 0.150 m when a 0.30 kg mass is hung from it. The spring is then stretched an additional 0.100 m from this equ

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a) $k=19.6N/m$

b) $V_m=0.81m/s$

c) $a_m=6.561m/s^2$

d) $K.E=0.096J$

e) $T=0.78sec$ & $F=1.29sec$

f) $mx'' + kx' =0$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Stretch Length $L=0.150m$

Mass $m=0.30kg$

Total stretch length $L_t=0.150+0.100=>0.25$

Generally the equation for Force F on the spring is mathematically given by

$F=-km\\\\k=F/m\\\\k=\frac{m*g}{x}\\\\k=\frac{0.30*9.8}{0.15}$

$k=19.6N/m$

b)Generally the equation for Max Velocity of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

$V_m=A\omega$

Where

A=Amplitude

$A=0.100m$

And

$\omega=angulat Velocity\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{19.6}{0.3}}\\\\\omega=8.1rad/s$

Therefore

$V_m=A\omega\\\\V_m=8.1*0.1$

$V_m=0.81m/s$

Generally the equation for Max Acceleration of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

$a_m=\omega^2A$

$a_m=8.1^2*0.1$

$a_m=6.561m/s^2$

Generally the equation for Total mechanical energy of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}*0.3*0.8^2$

$K.E=0.096J$

Generally the equation for the period T is mathematically given by

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

$T=\frac{2*3.142}{8.1}$

$T=0.78sec$

Generally the equation for the Frequency is mathematically given by

$F=\frac{1}{T}$

$F=1.29sec$

Generally the Equation of time-dependent vertical position of the mass is mathematically given by

$mx'' + kx' =0$

Where

'= signify order of differentiation

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the fourth option or letter D. Trade winds blow towards the equator because t<span>he Equator receives the most heat energy.

</span>The surface air that flows from these subtropical high-pressure belts toward the Equator is deflected toward the west in both hemispheres by the Coriolis effect. These winds blow<span> predominantly from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern Hemisphere.

Why are we not crushed by the weight of the atmosphere on our shoulders?

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Due to equal pressure in all the direction at a particular level in a fluid medium (Pascal's Law)

Explanation:

We are not crushed by the weight of the atmosphere because atmosphere is a fluid and we are immersed into it. So, according to the Pascal's law the the pressure a each point in a horizontal level is equal in all the direction irrespective of the orientation of a body.

Variation of pressure in term of the height of a fluid medium is given as:

$P=\rho.g.h$

$\rho=$ density of fluid

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of the free surface of the fluid from the immersed object.

And atmosphere has very less variation of pressure with change in height as it is a rare medium fluid and so for a human height there is very negligible variation of pressure at the heat of a human with respect to his toe.
