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 function of hammer and anvil in human ear
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Vibrations of the eardrum are in turn translated into oscillations of tiny bones (ossicles) found within the middle ear. The Hammer, Anvil, and Stirrup magnify the oscillations and relay this information to the chamber of the inner ear.

You are performing an experiment that requires the highest possible energy density in the interior of a very long solenoid. Whic
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

b. increasing the number of turns per unit length on the solenoid

e. increasing the current in the solenoid

Explanation:

As we know that energy density depends on the strength of the magnetic field. The magnetic field strength depends on the no of turns of the solenoid and the current passing through it. The greater the number of turns per unit length, greater the current passing through it, more stronger the magnetic field is. As

B = μ₀nI

n = no of turns

I = current through the wire

So the right options are

b. increasing the number of turns per unit length on the solenoid

e. increasing the current in the solenoid

A conductor is something which allows electricity to pass through it
an example is a coin
An insulator is something which cannot allow electricity to pass through it
an example is plastic (or plastic cotton reel, plastic container ect.)
Static electricity is when you rub two things together to create static

I'm not sure if i helped on the last question but i am definitely sure of the first ones
