In both magnitude and direction since acceleration is a vector quantity

Answer:

C. in both magnitude and direction

Explanation:

Circular motion is the movement of a body rotating around an axis along a circular path of constant radius. This movement can be uniform, if the speed of rotation is constant, or varied, if its speed changes over time. When an object moves in a circular motion, the speed is constant in magnitude and direction.

The circular movement occurs when a force of constant modulus is applied in a direction perpendicular to the speed of a piece of furniture, so that the modulus of this velocity remains constant, changing only its direction and its direction. The force applied in this case is called the centripetal force.

In 1.71 minutes, a ski lift raises four skiers at constant speed to a height of 148 m. The average mass of each skier is 62.9 kg

Answer:

3560.36 Watts

Explanation:

Power, $P=\frac {nΔW}{Δt)$ where P is power, n is the number of skiers, t is time in seconds and Δt is change in time, ΔW is given by mgh where m is mass, g is gravitational constant, h is height

Substituting n for 4 skiers, m for 62.9 Kg, g for 9.81, h for 148 m and t for 1.71*60=102.6 seconds

P= $\frac {4*62.9*9.81*148}{1.71*60}=3560.360702 Watts$

Average power is approximately 3560.36 Watts

Why are objects that fall near earths surface rarely in free fall?

marissa [1.9K]

"Free fall" means that gravity is the ONLY force acting on the object. If there's air resistance, then it isn't free-fall.

Objects that fall near earths surface are ALWAYS falling through air, unless they're inside some kind of a vacuum chamber with all the air removed from it.
