All of Dina's potential energy Ep is converted into kinetic energy Ek so Ep=Ek, where Ep=m*g*h and Ek=(1/2)*m*v². m is the mass of Dina, h is the height of ski slope, g=9.8 m/s² and v is the maximal velocity. 

So we solve for v:

m*g*h=(1/2)*m*v², masses cancel out,

g*h=(1/2)*v², we multiply by 2,

2*g*h=v² and take the square root to get v

√(2*g*h)=v, we plug in the numbers and get:

v=9.9 m/s. 

So Dina's maximum velocity on the bottom of the ski slope is v=9.9 m/s.

Describe what might happen if Earth’s magnetic field continues to lose strength.
Veronika [31]
The scientists said that the earth magnetic strength keep decreasing then the earth magnetic poles will be reversed and that will force the sun to rise from the west , and this is a great sign that the life on the earth will end to be ready for the hereafter .As God told., So what's the destiny of each of us? This is the big question which every one of us should know its answer.

Find the force needed to lift a 3000 N weight using a machine with a mechanical advantage of 15.
Soloha48 [4]

IF the machine is 100% efficient, then you only need to push at the input with a force of 200 Newtons. BUT ... you have to keep pushing the 200N 15 times as far as you want to lift the big weight.

A bomb of mass 6kg initially at rest explodes into two fragments of masses 4kg and2kg respectively. If the greater mass moves wi
uysha [10]

Answer:

v = 10 [m/s].

Explanation:

The largest mass is that of 4 [kg], in this way the momentum can be calculated by means of the product of the mass by velocity.

P=m*v\\

where:

P = momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 4 [kg]

v = velocity = 5 [m/s]

Now the momentum:

P=4*5\\P=20[kg*m/s]

This same momentum is equal for the other mass, in this way we can find the velocity.

P=m*v\\20=2*v\\v=10[m/s]

How much kinetic energy does a 6kg cart have when moving at 4 m/s?
Arturiano [62]

Given:

mass = 6 kg

velocity = 4 m/s

To find:

Kinetic energy of the cart = ?

Formula used:

Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

Where m = mass of the cart

v = velocity with which the cart is moving

Solution:

Kinetic energy of the moving cart is given by,

Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

Where m = mass of the cart

v = velocity with which the cart is moving

Kinetic energy =\frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times \ 4 \times 4

Kinetic energy = 48 Joule

Thus, the kinetic energy of the moving cart is 48 Joule.

car 1 is traveling south at 18 m/s and has a full load, giving it a total mass of 14,650 kg. Car 2 is traveling north at 11 m/s
kvasek [131]

Answer:

v_{4}= 80.92[m/s] (Heading south)

Explanation:

In order to calculate this problem, we must use the linear moment conservation principle, which tells us that the linear moment is conserved before and after the collision. In this way, we can propose an equation for the solution of the unknown.

ΣPbefore = ΣPafter

where:

P = linear momentum [kg*m/s]

Let's take the southward movement as negative and the northward movement as positive.

-(m_{1}*v_{1})+(m_{2}*v_{2})=-(m_{1}*v_{3})+(m_{2}*v_{4})

where:

m₁ = mass of car 1 = 14650 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of car 1 = 18 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of car 2 = 3825 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of car 2 = 11 [m/s]

v₃ = velocity of car 1 after the collison = 6 [m/s]

v₄ = velocity of car 2 after the collision [m/s]

-(14650*18)+(3825*11)=(14650*6)-(3825*v_{4})\\v_{4}=80.92[m/s]
