As a snowboarder descends a mountain slope, gravity, the normal force, and friction combine to exert a net force of 320 N in the

downhill direction. The net force does 4700 J of work on her during one segment of her descent. If her path cuts across the face of the mountain at a 65 degree angle from the direction of the net force, over what distance does she travel.

Answer:

34.75m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Net force, F = 320N

Work done by net force, W = 4700 N

Angle, θ = 65º

Work done at an angle is given as:

W = F * d * cosθ

Where d = distance travelled

θ is the angle between the force and the direction of motion.

Therefore,

4700 = 320 * d * cos65

=> d = 4700/(320 * cos65)

d = 34.75 m

Caves are a type of island ecosystem according to the theory of island biogeography. Please select the best answer from the choi
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A different type of habitat exists in the caves. There exist no green plants/producers but still various life forms evolve with in the caves. The major source of nutrients with in the caves is water and intrusion of other organism that led to deposition of food in the form of debris/guano etc. These food deposits are intake by the organisms living in caves leading to start of  food cycle. This is very much similar to any other food cycle

the sole of a tennis shoe has a surface area of 0.0290 m^2. if it is worn by a 65.0 kg person, what pressure does the shoe exert
AURORKA [14]

Answer: 21965.517 Pa

Explanation:

Pressure P is the force F exerted by a gas, a liquid or a solid on a surface (or area) A, its unit is Pascal Pa which is equal to N/m^{2} and its formula is:  

P=\frac{F}{A} (1)

In this case we have the surface of a sole of a tennis shoe:

A=0.0290 m^{2} (2)

And the mass m of the person who wears it:

m=65 kg

On the other hand, we know the weight is the force  F the Earth exerts on people and objects due gravity g :

F=m.g=(65 kg)(9.8m/^{2})

F=637N (3)

Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):

P=\frac{637N}{0.0290 m^{2}} (4)

Finally:

P=21965.517 Pa This is the pressure the shoe exert on the ground

Write an essay on basketball history and how the game has changed over time
jarptica [38.1K]

Basket ball has gone through some changes and hence got into shape as what we play or watch nowadays. Overall rules have the same fundamental principles as set in 1891 by the founder of this game.

December 21st, in 1891, the introductory basketball game was played in Springfield, Massachusetts. It was first brought into shape by a Canadian-by birth, Dr. James Naismith. The basic idea of the new game was to keep the sports loving students in shape during the winters or in between the outdoor game seasons.

'The basket ball' which had a set of thirteen basic rules set up a strong foundation to the game and still played almost in the same style with few modifications.In the very year of 1891, after mixing and changing theme of several other played games of those days, basket ball was born.

Initially, basket ball with the 13 rules was played with 2 peach baskets setup as goals, which now a days are the baskets on a high poles although modified but with same basic idea. In the very first game played in Springfield, the set of players were able to score a single point only, in the whole game.

By comparing Naismith’s basketball and basketball of today we see a characteristic of the original game which had no dribbling, instead a player had to pass the ball to a another player of his team ,from his the very spot where he caught it. The second thing which has now changed is the fouls, in the original game if any team made 3 consecutive foul play ,the oponent received a goal in reward. Although this scoring technique doesn't exist in the modern basketball. Rather nowadays, if any team makes five fouls in one quarter, the offending team is in the penalty ,and shoot free throws are awarded against them.

All other rules are quiet intact in the modern play as well. As the game today,has extended to over 2 hundered countries and enjoyed by many on television screens, with modern umpiring and technologies being used in the game, but the original idea of the founder is still endured.

How do you find a controlled variable
adelina 88 [10]

Hello there!


Essentially, a control variable is what is kept the same throughout the experiment, and it is not of primary concern in the experimental outcome. Any change in a control variable in an experiment would invalidate the correlation of dependent variables (DV) to the independent variable (IV), thus skewing the results.
