Answer:

F = -2527.35 N

Explanation:

Given,

mass per unit time = 58.1 Kg/s

Speed of the water = 43.5 m/s

Final momentum = 0 kg/s

Force = Change in momentum

F = Final momentum - initial momentum

F = 0 - initial momentum

F = 0 -58.1\times 43.5

F = -2527.35 N

Hence, the Force exerted is equal to F = -2527.35 N

Contact [7]

Answer:

F = 274.68[N]

Explanation:

The gravitational force is equal to the weight of a body, or this case that of a person. Weight can be calculated by means of the product of mass by gravitational acceleration. In this way we have the following equation:

F=m*g

where:

F = force or weight [N]

m = mass = 28 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

F=28*9.81\\F=274.68[N]

Which of the following changes would decrease the coefficient of friction needed for this ride?
posledela
Friction occurs between two contacting surfaces. The coefficient of friction is very much dependent on the roughness of these surfaces. Some of the many ways in which the coefficient can be lessened or decreased are to lubricate the surface or make it shiny by eliminating the spikes which caused the roughness.
