A skier moving at 4.75 m/s encounters a long, rough, horizontal patch of snow having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.220

disa [49]

First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force, $\mu m g$ . For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:
$ma=-\mu m g$
Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:
$a=-(0.220)(9.81 m/s^2)=-2.16 m/s^2$

Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:
$2aS=v_f^2-v_i^2$
where $v_f=0$ is the final speed of the skier and $v_i=4.75 m/s$ is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
$S=- \frac{v_i^2}{2a}=- \frac{(4.75 m/s)^2}{2(-2.16 m/s^2)}=5.23 m$

Using the definition of moment of inertia, calculate icm, the moment of inertia about the center of mass, for this object.

Step2247 [10]

<span> The masses have no inertia about their own CM, and "the object" is the two masses. </span>
<span>1. Icm (at point A) = 2mr^2
hope this helps</span>

Describe Darwin’s<br> observations on the Galápagos islands<br> during his voyage on the HMS Beagle.

Helen [10]

Answer:

During the voyage Charles Darwin explored the Galapagos islands and noticed the same species have different adaptations in places. ... Charles noticed that each species has the same ancestor but they evolve to adapt over time so they can live longer.

Conservation of Momentum<br> No one likes you little trolls please send an actual answer

Olin [163]

Hello!

This is an example of an inelastic collision, where the two objects "stick" to each other after their collision. (The Goalkeeper CATCHES the puck).

We can write out the conservation of momentum formula:

m1vi + m2vi = m1vf + m2vf

Let:

m1 = mass of puck

m2 = mass of the goalkeeper

We know that the initial velocity of the goalkeeper is 0, so:

m1vi + m2(0) = m1vf + m2vf

m1vi = m1vf + m2vf

The final velocities will be the same, so:

m1vi = (m1 + m2)vf

Plug in the given values:

(0.16)(40)/ (0.16 + 120) = vf ≈ 0.0533 m/s

Using the equation for momentum:

p = mv

The object with the LARGER mass will have the greater momentum. Thus, the Goalkeeper has the largest momentum as p = mv; a greater mass correlates to a greater momentum since the velocity is the same between the two objects. The puck would have a momentum of p = (.16)(0.0533) = 0.008528 kgm/s, whereas the goalkeeper would have a momentum of

p = (120)(0.0533) = 6.396 kgm/s.

At the lowest point in a vertical dive (radius = 0.58 km), an airplane has a speed of 300 km/h which is not changing. Determine

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration is $a = 11.97 \ m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius is $r = 0.58 \ km = 0.58 * 1000 = 580 \ m$

The speed is $v = 300\ km /hr = \frac{300 *1000}{1 * 3600 } = 83.33 \ m/s$

The centripetal acceleration of the pilot is mathematically represented as

$a = \frac{v^2 }{r}$

substituting values

$a = \frac{(83.33)^2 }{580}$

$a = 11.97 \ m/s^2$
