a skier is gliding along 3.0 m/s on horizontal, frictionless snow. he suddenly starts down a 10 degrees incline. his speed at th

e bottom is 15 m/s. what is the lenght of the incline? how long does it take him to reach the bottom?

... find length
(way 1) determine acceleration using force
only force act on skier is mg vertically. spilt vector we get force along the incline = mgsin(10) and f= ma so
ma = mgsin(10) or a = gsin(10)
a (along the incline)= gsin(10) = 10sin(10) = 1.74
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
15^2 = 3^2 + 2(1.74)s
s = 62.06 m

(way 2) using conservation of energy
energy (KE+PE) on top = energy at bottom
0.5m3^2 + mgh = 0.5m15^2 +0
h (height of incline) = (112.5 - 4.5)/10 = 19.8 m
length of incline = h/sin(10) = 62.2 m ; trigonometry

... find time
s = (u+v)t/2
t = 2s/(u+v) = 2(62.2)/(3+15) = 6.91 s

What is the concentration of H^ + at apH = 2 ? Mol / L What is the concentration of H^ + ions at apH = 6 ? Mol/L How many more H
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 2 := [H^+]=0.01 mol/L

The concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 6 : [H^+]'=0.000001 mol/L

There are 0.009999 more moles of  H^+ ions in a solution at a pH = 2 than in a solution at a pH = 6.

Explanation:

The pH of the solution is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in an aqueous solution.

pH=-\log [H^+]

The hydrogen ion concentration at pH is equal to 2 = [H^+]

2=-\log [H^+]\\

[H^+]=10^{-2}M= 0.01 M=0.01 mol/L

The hydrogen ion concentration at pH is equal to 6 = [H^+]

6=-\log [H^+]\\\\

[H^+]=10^{-6}M= 0.000001 M= 0.000001 mol/L

Concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 2 =[H^+]=0.01 mol/L

Concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 6 = [H^+]'=0.000001 mol/L

The difference between hydrogen ion concentration at pH 2 and pH 6 :

= [H^+]-[H^+]' = 0.01 mol/L- 0.000001 mol/L = 0.009999 mol/L

Moles of hydrogen ion in 0.009999 mol/L solution :

=0.009999 mol/L\times 1 L=0.009999 mol

There are 0.009999 more moles of  H^+ ions in a solution at a pH = 2 than in a solution at a pH = 6.

Answer:

The coastal zone is not a stable and constant environment, but a dynamic place that can change rapidly in response to natural processes such as seasonal weather patterns. Waves, winds, currents, tides and storms are the major forces on the coast.
