Holding onto a tow rope moving parallel to a frictionless ski slope, a 68.7 kg skier is pulled up the slope, which is at an angl
Furkat [3]

Answer:

a) F = 78.606\,N, b) F = 88.911\,N

Explanation:

a) Let consider two equations of equilibrium, the first parallel to ski slope and the second perpendicular to that. The equations are, respectively:

\Sigma F_{x'} = F - m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta = 0\\\Sigma F_{y'} = N - m\cdot g \cdot \cos \theta = 0

The force on the skier is:

F = m \cdot g \cdot \sin \theta

F = (68.7\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot \sin 6.7^{\textdegree}

F = 78.606\,N

b) The equations of equilibrium are the following:

\Sigma F_{x'} = F - m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta = m\cdot a\\\Sigma F_{y'} = N - m\cdot g \cdot \cos \theta = 0

The force on the skier is:

F = m\cdot (a + g \cdot \sin \theta)

F = (68.7\,kg)\cdot (0.150\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}+9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}\cdot \sin 6.7^{\textdegree})

F = 88.911\,N

Valerie is preparing a blood sample for analysis. She wants to separate the solid red blood cells and obtain only the liquid por
liraira [26]
<span>First, she should put the sample in a test tube and place it in a centrifuge. This would cause the red blood cells to move to the bottom because of their higher density. Next, she would be able to decant the plasma and analyze it separately from the red blood cells.</span>

How much time does it take a person to walk 12km north at the velocity at a velocity of 6.5 km/hrs?
alukav5142 [94]

"6.5 km/hr" is not a velocity.  It's just a speed, so
we don't know what direction he's walking.

If he happens to be walking north, then it takes him

               (12 km) / (6.5 km/hr)  =  1.846... hours  (rounded) .

If he's walking in any other direction, it takes him longer than that.

If the angle between north and the direction he's walking is
90 degrees or more, then he can never cover any northward
distance, no matter how long he walks.

Why does a heavier object fall faster
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Explanation:

In a vacuum (no air resistance), it doesn't.  All falling objects, regardless of mass, accelerate at the same rate.

However, when air resistance is taken into account, heavier objects indeed fall faster than lighter objects, provided they have the same shape and size.  For example, a lead ball falls faster than a styrofoam ball.

To understand why, first look at what factors affect air resistance:

D = ½ρv²CA

where ρ is air density,

v is velocity,

C is drag coefficient,

and A is cross sectional area.

As falling objects accelerate, they eventually reach a maximum velocity where air resistance equals weight.  This is called terminal velocity.

D = W

½ρv²CA = mg

v = √(2mg/(ρCA))

If we increase m while holding everything else constant, v increases.  So two objects with the same size and shape but different masses will have different terminal velocities, with the heavier object falling faster.

Calculate the acceleration of a turtle going from 0.3 m/s to 0.7 m/s in 30 seconds.
Hoochie [10]
Acceleration = velocity/ time
Acceleration = 0.7-0.3 /30= 0.01 m/s^2
Notice that velocity is calculated the final speed minus the initial !
