True or false: objects fall toward earth at a rate of 9.8 m/s because of centripetal force.

Sadly, no. The statement kind of has some appropriate words in it, but it's badly corrupted. Objects don't fall to Earth at a rate of 9.8 m/s, and the force that accelerates them downward is not a centripetal one.

Explain how fossil fuel use in the US makes us vulnerable to the demands of foreign countries.
daser333 [38]

Well the US doesn't naturally have a lot of fossil fuels so we rely on other countries who do have fossil fuels. So if we aren't that friendly with Saudia Arabia (they have a bunch of oil) then they can hike up the prices or cut us off from their oil supply completely which would cripple the US severly. So with that being said, we NEED other countries, and the big question is when will they not NEED us. At any point in which they feel that they don't need us they can just cut us off, which would be bad.

Hope that helps :)

(I) A novice skier, starting from rest, slides down an icy frictionless 8.0° incline whose vertical height is 105 m. How fast is
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

v = 45.37 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

angle of inclination = 8.0°

Vertical height, H  = 105 m

Initial K.E. = 0 J

Initial P.E. = m g H

Final PE = 0 J

Final KE = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Using Conservation of energy

KE_i + PE_i + KE_f + PE_f

0 + m g H = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + 0

v = \sqrt{2gH}

v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 105}

v = 45.37 m/s

Hence, speed of the skier at the bottom is equal to v = 45.37 m/s
