Answer:

Her velocity at the bottom of the hill is 15.61m/s and she travel up the 30° slope 24.85m

Explanation:

For simplicity purpose, we can analyze the section of the snowboarder's travel in the hill, in the horizontal surface and in the slope separately.

In the hill, we will say that the x-axis is parallel to the hill, and y-axis is perpendicular. Using geometry, we can see that the angle of the snowboarder's weight force from the y-axis is 15°. The velocity of the snowboarder will increase in the direction parallel to the hill, in a constant acceleration motion:

F_x: W_x = ma\\W*sin(15) = ma\\mg*sin(15) = ma\\a = g*sin(15) = 9.81m/s^2 * sin(15) = 2.54m/s^2

With the acceleration, we can use the equations for constant acceleration motion:

v_f^2 - v_o^2 = 2a*d\\v_f^2 - (0m/s)^2=2*2.54m/s^2*48m\\vf = \sqrt{2*2.54m/s^2*48m}=15.61 m/s

This would be her velocity at the bottom of the hill.

As there is no friction, she would reach the bottom of the slope with this velocity.

In the slope, the line of reasoning is similar as in the hill, with the difference that the acceleration will oppose velocity.

F_x: -W_x = ma\\-W*sin(30) = ma\\-mg*sin(30) = ma\\a = -g*sin(30) = -9.81m/s^2 * sin(30) = -4.905m/s^2

v_f^2-v_o^2=2a*d\\d=\frac{(v_f^2-v_o^2)}{2a}=\frac{((0m/s)^2-(15.61m/s)^2)}{2(-4.905m/s^2)} = 24.85m

Georgia [21]
The best question that could prompt a scientific investigation is: <u>What substances dissolve in ocean water?</u> 

This way the person experimenting can use several variables and make observations. Upon making observations, the person can be able to gather as much data as he can in order to answer the original question that he asked.

Answer:

8.37×10⁻⁴ N/C

Explanation:

Electric Field: This is the ratio of electrostatic force to electric charge. The S.I unit of electric field is N/C.

From the question, the expression for electric field is given as,

E = F/Q.......................... Equation 1

Where E = Electric Field, F = force experienced by the charged balloon, Q = Charge on the balloon.

Given: F = 8.2×10⁻² Newton, Q = 9.8×10 Coulombs = 98 Coulombs

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = 8.2×10⁻² /98

E = 8.37×10⁻⁴ N/C

Hence the Electric Field of the charged balloon =  8.37×10⁻⁴ N/C
