(I) A novice skier, starting from rest, slides down an icy frictionless 8.0° incline whose vertical height is 105 m. How fast is
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

v = 45.37 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

angle of inclination = 8.0°

Vertical height, H  = 105 m

Initial K.E. = 0 J

Initial P.E. = m g H

Final PE = 0 J

Final KE = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Using Conservation of energy

KE_i + PE_i + KE_f + PE_f

0 + m g H = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0

v = \sqrt{2gH}

v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 105}

v = 45.37 m/s

Hence, speed of the skier at the bottom is equal to v = 45.37 m/s

a brand of a lightbulb has a power of 55w and an efficiency of 1.6% how much power is wasted as heat by this lightbulb
Maru [420]
98.4% of the power turns into heat.

If the bulb consumes 55 watts,
then it "wastes"

(0.984) x (55w) = 54.12 watts

Calculate Anna's weight in newtons on Earth. (G=9.8 m/s2) Must include unit with your answer, what is it?​
Pavlova-9 [17]

We know from that other question that her mass is 60 kg, and

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

Earth weight = (60 kg) x (9.8 m/s^2)

Weight = 588 Newtons

Mary takes 6.0 seconds to run up a flight of stairs that is 102 meters long. If Mary's weight is 87 newtons, what power has Mary
fredd [130]

Answer: 1479watts

Explanation:

Power is defined as the energy expended or work done in a specific time.

Mathematically,

Power = Workdone/time taken

Since work done is force × distance

Power = force × distance/time

Force = Mary's weight = 87N

Distance = height of the flight = 102meters

Time = 6.0seconds

Substituting in the formula we have;

Power = 87 × 102/6

Power = 1,479watts

Note that the time must be in seconds before usage. If its given in minutes, you will have to convert to seconds
