Answer:

14.2 m

Explanation:

Using conservation of energy:

PE at top = KE at bottom

mgh = ½ mv²

h = v² / (2g)

h = (16.7 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 14.2 m

Using kinematics:

Given:

v₀ = 16.7 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (16.7 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 14.2 m

What problems do pathogens cause in our society?
kotegsom [21]

Pathogens are microorganisms that cause infectious diseases. Bacteria and viruses are the main pathogens in the world today.

The major problem that pathogen cause in society is that they are the agents of infection and disease. 

An infection results when a pathogen invades the body and begins growing within a host.  A disease results when tissue function is impaired due to an infection.

Due to diseases, affected people can not work  which negatively affects the economy, and the sick may end up dying causing a lot of grief, and robbing society of a father, a mother or child.

The government has to put money aside for health care which would otherwise have been used for other things to help the society.

An object is moving at a constant speed along a straight line. Which of the following statements is not true? A. There must be a
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

False statement = There must be a non-zero net force acting on the object.  

Explanation:

An object is moving at a constant speed along a straight line. If the speed is constant then its velocity must be constant. We know that the rate of change of velocity is called acceleration of the object i.e.

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

a = 0

⇒ The acceleration of the object is zero.

The product of force and acceleration gives the magnitude of force acting on the object i.e.

F = m a = 0

⇒  The net force acting on the object must be zero.

So, the option (a) is not true. This is because the force acting on the object is zero. First option contradicts the fact.

An 80-kilogram skier slides on waxed skis along a horizontal surface of snow at constant velocity while pushing with his poles.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

Explanation:

To answer this question, let's write Newton's second law of the two axes

Y Axis  

        Fy + N - W = 0

        Fy + N = W

X axis

       Fx - fr = 0

      Fx = fr

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

   The direction of this force is along the length of the rods that are in an Angle, where the x and y components of the force come from

In general this force is small because the rubbing of the skis is small
