L = length of the incline = 75 m

θ = angle of incline = 22 deg

h = height of skier at the top of incline = L Sinθ = (75) Sin22 = 28.1 m

μ = Coefficient of friction = 0.090

N = normal force by the surface of incline

mg Cosθ = Component of weight of skier normal to the surface of incline opposite to normal force N

normal force "N" balances the component of weight opposite to it hence we get

N = mg Cosθ

frictional force acting on the skier is given as

f = μN

f = μmg Cosθ

v = speed of skier at the bottom of incline

Using conservation of energy

potential energy at the top of incline = kinetic energy at the bottom + work done by frictional force

mgh = f L + (0.5) m v²

mgh = μmg Cosθ L + (0.5) m v²

gh = μg Cosθ L + (0.5) v²

(9.8 x 28.1) = (0.09 x 9.8 x 75) Cos22 + (0.5) v²

v = 20.7 m/s

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Stress = F / A       force per unit area

A = 3.00 cm^2 = 3 E-4  m^2

F = 2.4E8 N/m^2 * 3E-4 m^2 = 7.2E4 N    max force applied

F/3 = 2.4E4 N  if force not to exceed limit   (= f)

f = M a

a = 2.4 E4 N / 1.2 E3 kg = 20 m / s^2      about 2 g
