A ski lift carries a 75.0-kg skier at 3.00 m/s for 1.50 min along a cable that is inclined at an angle of 40.0° above the horizo
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer

given,

mass of the ski = 75 Kg

speed of the skier, v = 3 m/s

time = 1.50 min = 90 s

angle of inclination, θ = 40°

distance = s x t

              = 3 x 90 = 270 m

a) W = F. d cos θ

   W = mg. d cos θ

   W = 75 x 9.8 x 270 x cos 40°

    W = 152021.52 J

work is done by the ski lift is equal to  152021.52 J

b) Power extended by the ski

 Power = \dfrac{Work\ done}{time}

Power = \dfrac{152021.52}{90}

      P = 1689.13 Watt.

power is expended by the ski lift is equal to 1689.13 W.

The trade winds are tropical winds that blow toward the Equator. Choose the statement that best explains why the trade winds blo
AveGali [126]

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the fourth option or letter D. Trade winds blow towards the equator because t<span>he Equator receives the most heat energy.

</span>The surface air that flows from these subtropical high-pressure belts toward the Equator is deflected toward the west in both hemispheres by the Coriolis effect. These winds blow<span> predominantly from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern Hemisphere.

PLEASE HELP!!!! The displacement vectors A and B, when added together, give the resultant vector R, so that R = A + B. Use the d
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Ax = 0

Ay = 6 m

Bx = 8 cos phi = cos 34 = 6.63 m

By = 8 sin phi = 8 sin (-34) = -4.47 m

Rx = Ax + Bx = 0 + 6.63 = 6.63 m

Ry = Ay + By = 6 - 4.47 = 1.53 m

R = (6.63^2 + 1.53^2)^1/2 = 6.80 m

tan theta = Ry / Rx = 1.53 / 6.8 = ,225

theta = 12.7 deg
