A skier starts from rest at the top of a 40.8 m hill, skis down a 30 degree incline into a valley, and continues up a 32.5 m hig

h hill. The heights of both hills are measured from the valley floor. Assume that you can neglect friction and the effect of the ski poles. How fast is the skier moving at he bottom of the valley? What is the skier's speed at the top of the next hill? Do the angles of the hills affect your answers?

Answer:

a. 28.27 m/s

b. 12.75 m/s

c. No

Explanation:

a.

The bottom

Ek = Ep

¹/₂ * m * v² = m * g * h₁

v = √ 2 * g * h₁  = √ 2 * 9.8 * 40.8 m

v = 28.27 m/s

b.

At the top

Ek = Ep

¹/₂ * m * v² = m * g * h₁

v = √ 2 * g * h₁  = √ 2 * 9.8 * (40.8 - 32.5) m

v = 12.75 m/s

c.

No in this case the axis is the same of the motion so, the angle doesn't affect the result

BigorU [14]
In electronics, the SI unit for current is Ampere. It is the amount of charge in Coulombs per unit time. It is named after the father of electrodynamics, Andre-Marie Ampere. Also, the current can be easily determined through the Ohm's Law, which states that current is equal to volts divided by the resistance. The answer is letter D.

fredd [130]

Terminal velocity (Maximum velocity) is 9.8 meters a second. m/s.

If you wanted the exact answer, you would need the distance from the window to the ground; and than divide by 3.0. Otherwise, 9.8 meters a second would be your best bet.

A wheel rotates about a fixed axis with a constant angular acceleration of 3.3 rad/s2. The diameter of the wheel is 21 cm. What
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The the linear speed (in m/s) of a point on the rim of this wheel at an instant=0.418 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Angular acceleration, \alpha=3.3 rad/s^2

Diameter of the wheel, d=21 cm

Radius of wheel, r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{21}{2} cm

Radius of wheel, r=\frac{21\times 10^{-2}}{2} m

1m=100 cm

Magnitude of total linear acceleration, a=1.7 m/s^2

We have to find the linear speed  of a  at an instant when that point has a total linear acceleration with a magnitude of 1.7 m/s2.

Tangential acceleration,a_t=\alpha r

a_t=3.3\times \frac{21\times 10^{-2}}{2}

a_t=34.65\times 10^{-2}m/s^2

Radial acceleration,a_r=\frac{v^2}{r}

We know that

a=\sqrt{a^2_t+a^2_r}

Using the formula

1.7=\sqrt{(34.65\times 10^{-2})^2+(\frac{v^2}{r})^2}

Squaring on both sides

we get

2.89=1200.6225\times 10^{-4}+\frac{v^4}{r^2}

\frac{v^4}{r^2}=2.89-1200.6225\times 10^{-4}

v^4=r^2\times 2.7699

v^4=(10.5\times 10^{-2})^2\times 2.7699

v=((10.5\times 10^{-2})^2\times 2.7699)^{\frac{1}{4}}

v=0.418 m/s

Hence, the the linear speed (in m/s) of a point on the rim of this wheel at an instant=0.418 m/s

A 0.20 kg mass on a horizontal spring is pulled back a certain distance and released. The maximum speed of the mass is measured
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

b. 0.20 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial mass, m = 0.2 kg

maximum speed,  v = 0.3 m/s

The total energy of the spring at the given maximum speed is calculated as;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

K.E = 0.5 x 0.2 x 0.3²

K.E = 0.009 J

If the mass is changed to 0.4 kg

¹/₂mv² = K.E

mv² = 2K.E

v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m} } \\\\v =  \sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.009}{0.4} } \\\\v = 0.21 \ m/s\\\\v \approx 0.20 \ m/s

Therefore, the maximum speed is 0.20 m/s
