A new ski area has opened that emphasizes the extreme nature of the skiing possible on its slopes. Suppose an ad intones "Free-f

all skydiving is the greatest rush you can experience . . . but we’ll take you as close as you can get on land. When you tip your skis down the slope of our steepest runs, you can accelerate at up to 75% of the acceleration you’d experience in free fall." What angle slope could give such an acceleration?

Answer:

48.6°

Explanation:

The forward force, F equals the component of the weight along the slope.

So mgsinθ = ma where a = acceleration and θ = angle between the slope and the horizontal.

So a = gsinθ

Since we are given that a = 75%g = 0.75g,

0.75g = gsinθ

sinθ = 0.75

θ = sin⁻¹(0.75)

= 48.6°

Which two vectors, when subtracted (i.e., when one vector is subtracted from the other), will have the largest magnitude?
FromTheMoon [43]

Given: Please see the attached image below.

 

To be able to subtract vectors, we can either use the parallelogram method or the triangle method. Take note that the only difference is that alternatively adding vectors A and B, we will instead be adding A and – B. When we ponder of vector subtraction, we must anticipate about it in terms of adding a negative vector. A negative vector has the same magnitude as the original vector, however, it has an opposite direction.

 

So in this problem, the two vectors that will have the largest magnitude are A & F when subtracted (i.e., when one vector is subtracted from the other).

The 68-kg crate is stationary when the force P is applied. Determine the resulting acceleration of the crate if (a) P = 0, (b) P
bogdanovich [222]

Explanation:

Mass of the crate, m = 68 kg

We need to find the resulting acceleration if :

(a) Force, P = 0

P = m a

⇒ a = 0

(b) P = 181 N

a=\dfrac{P}{m}

a=\dfrac{181\ N}{68\ kg}

a=2.67\ m/s^2

(c) P = 352 N

a=\dfrac{P}{m}

a=\dfrac{352\ N}{68\ kg}

a=5.17\ m/s^2

Hence, this is the required solution.
