3. How does Earth’s rotation affect our view of stars

Since we ride along with the Earth while it's doing whatever it does,
the Earth's rotation causes our eyes to constantly point in a different
direction.

If we try to keep watching one star, we have to keep changing the
direction of our eyes to keep looking at the same star. 

We can't feel the Earth rotating, so our brains say that the star  ... and
the sun and the moon too ... is actually moving across the sky.

This is because when the Earth spins on it's axis the view of our sky shifts as well.

C. inertia.  the man is sent flying off the bus because of his weight and the sudden stop of the bus. this effect is called inertia. an example of gravity would be throwing an apple up and having it come to the ground. an example of weight would be putting a man and an elephant on a scale and having the elephant come down while the man goes up.

A 65-kg skier grips a moving rope that is powered by an engine and is pulled at a constant speed to the top of a 230 hill. The s
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The required power by the engine is 33.0 hp

Explanation:

Solution

Newton's second law says that, the net force Fnet on an object of mass m will accelerates the object

Where

Fnet = ma

a = acceleration

θ = angle of incline,

m = mass of the 30 skiers,

f = frictional force

N = normal force

mg sinθ, mg cos θ are components of weight skier

F = the force applied by engine

Now,

The skier mass  is 65 kg

We calculate the mass of the 30 skier

m = 30 (65kg) = 1950 kg

Calculate the net force acting on the skiers along the x-axis

Fnet, x=ma

Now,

F-mg sin θ - f = 0

F= mg sin θ + f -----(1)

The kinetic frictional force is denoted by

f = μk N ------(2)

μk = The coefficient of the kinetic friction

We now, calculate the net force acting on the skiers along y axis

Fnet, y = ma

N- mg cos θ = 0

so,

N = mg cos θ

This value is  substituted in equation (2)

f = μk mg cos θ

we substitute the value for equation (1)

F = mg sin θ + μk mg cos θ

mg =  sinθ + μk cos θ)-----(3)

The next step is to calculate the work done by the engine in pulling the skiers, the incline top by applying the equation 3

W = Fx

= mg ( sinθ + μk cos θ)x

x = the displacement

we now substitute 1950 kg for m, 23° for θ, 0.10 for μk and 320m for x

so,

W = mg ( sinθ + μk cos θ)x

= (1950 kg) (9.81 m/s²) (sin 23° + (0.10) cos 23°) (320 m)

= 2.99 * 10 ^6 J

Then,

The time from minute to s is converted

t =(2.0min) ( 60sec/1.0min) = 120 sec

Now we calculate the power needed by the engine to pull the skiers at the incline top

Thus,

P = W/t

we substitute  2.955 * 10 ^6 J for W and  120 s for t

we have,

P = 2.955 * 10 ^ 6 J/ 120 s

= ( 2.4625 * 10 ^ 4 W) (1.0 hp/746 W)

= 33.0 hp

In conclusion the required power by the engine is 33.0 hp
