Answer:

F = 1618.65[N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the following equation that relates the mass, density and volume of the body to the floating force.

We know that the density of wood is equal to 750 [kg/m^3]

density = m / V

where:

m = mass = 165[kg]

V = volume [m^3]

V = m / density

V = 165 / 750

V = 0.22 [m^3]

The floating force is equal to:

F = density * g * V

F = 750*9.81*0.22

F = 1618.65[N]

A crate slides down a ramp that makes a 20∘ angle with the ground. to keep the crate from sliding too fast, paige pushes back on
shutvik [7]
The solution is:
Paige's force is (somewhat) against the direction of motion: Work = F * d Where F is the force; andd is the distance
Our f is 64 N and our distance is 20 and -3.6Plugging that in our equation will give us:
= 64N * cos20º * -3.6m = -217 J

An 80.0 kg skier slides down a hill shaped as shown. Assume
umka21 [38]

The height above the ground from where the skier start is 11.5 m.

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

The height above the ground from where the skier start is determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy as shown below;

P.E = K.E

mgh = ¹/₂mv²

gh = ¹/₂v²

h = \frac{v^2}{2g} \\\\h = \frac{15^2}{2 \times 9.8} \\\\h = 11.5 \ m

Thus, the height above the ground from where the skier start is 11.5 m.
