When a skateboarder rides down a hill, the normal force exerted on the skater by<br> the hill is
Luda [366]

Newton's second law allows us to find that the correct answer is:

  • Less than weight of the skater

Newton's second law states that the net force and is propositional to the mass and acceleration of the body

For these problems it is essential to set a reference system, with respect to which to carry out the measurements, in this case we set a coordinate system with the x axis parallel to the plane and positive in the direction of movement and the y axis perpendicular to the plane.

In the attachment we can see a free-body diagram of the problem, let's work each axis separately

x-axis

         Wₓ -fr = m a

y-axis

         N - W_y = 0

         N = W_y

Where Wₓ and W_y are the components of the weight, fr the friction force that opposes the movement, m the mass and the acceleration of the body

let's use trigonometry to find the components of the weight

        cos θ = \frac{W_y}{W}

        sin θ = \frac{W_x}{W}

         W_y = W cos θ

         Wₓ = W sin θ

we substitute

          N = mg cos θ

From this equation we can see that the normal is less than the weight of the body.

In conclusion using Newton's second law we find that the correct answer is:

  • Less than th weight of the skater

HOW TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION PLEASE ​
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

  • radioactive decay is a random process
  • use long tongs

Explanation:

Quantum theory has taught us that virtually everything to do with the nature of matter in the universe is a random process. The decay of atomic nuclei is something that makes that randomness "visible" with appropriate instrumentation. As such, the rate of decay will vary over the "short" term. Consequently, it is not surprising to see a variation of a few counts in an activity measurement over a period of a few minutes.

__

Safety with respect to radioactive materials involves staying as far away from them as possible. The use of long tongs for handling would be appropriate.

What could be a possible explanation why tectonic plates do not all move in the same direction
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

tectonic plates move in opposite direction

Tectonic plates are not necessarily moving in opposite directions, but if there directions are different they form plate boundaries. If they were moving in the same direction they would become the same plate. The more opposite the direction, the more obvious the fault.

Examples of plate boundaries:

Divergent: moving away from each other - mid-Atlantic ridge

Convergent: moving towards each other - the Himalayas (Indian plate subducting under the Eurasian plate forcing up the mountains)

Transform: sliding laterally along each other - San Andreas fault
