<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

B. The amount of pressure exerted by a solid is solely dependent on its mass.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Pressure is the force per unit area exerted by a substance on a surface.
  • <em><u>Solids exerts pressure on surfaces, which does not depend on the mass of the solid, but depends on the area of contact on the solid and the force applied.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Since pressure refers to force exerted per unit area. Pressure can be increased by either increasing the size of the force or reducing the area over which the force acts.</u></em>
  • <em><u>A solid with a larger surface area where the force acts will exert less pressure compared to a solid surface with a small area where the force acts. </u></em>

Suppose the ski patrol lowers a rescue sled carrying an injured skier, with a combined mass of 97.5 kg, down a 60.0-degree slope
Kitty [74]

a. 1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b.21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c. 23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled d. The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.

       

<h3>What is friction work?</h3>

The work done by friction is the force of friction times the distance traveled times the cosine of the angle between the friction force and displacement

a. How much work is done by friction as the sled moves 28m along the hill?

ans. We use the formula:

friction work = -µ.mg.dcosθ

  = -0.100 * 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * cos 60

= -1337.3 J

-1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b. How much work is done by the rope on the sled in this distance?

We use the formula:

Rope work = -m.g.d(sinθ - µcosθ)

rope work = - 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m (sin 60 – 0.100 * cos 60)

                     = 26,754 (0.816)

                     = 21,835 J

21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c.  What is the work done by the gravitational force on the sled?

By using  the formula:

Gravity work = mgdsinθ

                    = 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * sin 60

                    = 23,170 J

23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled .

       

D. What is the total work done?

By adding all the values

work done =  -1337.3 + 21,835 + 23,170

                 = 43,670 J

The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.

An organ pipe of length 3.0 m has one end closed. The longest and next-longest possible wavelengths for standing waves inside th
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

The longest wavelength for closed at one end and open at the other is

y / 4      where y is the wavelength - that is node - antinode

The next possible wavelength is 3 y / 4 -    node - antinode - node -antinode

y / 4 = 3 m     y = 12 meters    the longest wavelength

3 y / 4 = 3 m      y = 4 meters   1 / 3 times as long

A football player with a mass of 85 kg wears a uniform and helmet that have a mass of 4.5 kg. The football player moves at 2.1 m
DochEvi [55]
The answer would be 187.95 kg.m/s.

To get the momentum, all you have to do is multiply the mass of the moving object by the velocity. 

p = mv

Where:
P = momentum
m = mass
v = velocity

Not the question is asking what is the total momentum of the football player and uniform. So we need to first get the combined mass of the football player and the uniform. 

Mass of football player = 85.0 kg
Mass of the uniform     = <u>  4.5 kg</u>
TOTAL MASS                  89.5 kg

So now we have the mass. So let us get the momentum of the combined masses. 

p = mv
   = (89.5kg)(2.1m/s)
   = 187.95 kg.m/s

Mark has a mass of 55 kg and climbs up a short, steep trailbof length 300 m to reach the top of a 100 m tall cliff. Matthew, his
n200080 [17]
This is slightly a trick question.

Potential energy = Mass x gravity x height.

The problem gives us the mass (55kg) and his twin brother we can assume has the same mass (55kg).

It also gives us the height (100m) and acceleration from gravity = 9.81m/s
