A 55.6 kg ice skater is moving at 1.73 m/s when she grabs the loose end of a rope, the opposite end of which is tied to a pole.

She then moves in a circle of radius 0.608 m around the pole. Find the force exerted by the rope on her arms. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in units of kN.

Answer:

The force exerted by the rope on her arms is 273.7 N = 0.274 kN

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the ice skater = 55.6 kg

Velocity = 1.73 m/s

She then moves in a circle of radius 0.608 m around the pole.

Step 2:

Force exterted by the horizontal rope is the centripetal force acting on theice skater:

Fc = M*ac

⇒ with ac = v²/r

Fc = M * v²/r

Fc = 55.6 * 1.73²/0.608

Fc =273.69 N

The force exerted by the rope on her arms is 273.7 N = 0.274 kN

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

-72.0°C

Explanation:

PV = nRT

Since n, number of moles, is constant:

PV / T = PV / T

(4.65×10⁶ Pa) V / (21 + 273.15) K = (1.06×10⁶ Pa) (3V) / T

T = 201.16 K

T = -72.0°C

Read the following excerpt about water availability to living organisms.
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

1 percent

Explanation:

It says that only 3 percent of the water is fresh. So it can be 1 percent or 3 percent. But then it says that most of the water is locked up in glaciers and polar ice caps. So the animals would have a hard time getting to this water. So the rest is available for them. Approximately 1 percent is most reasonable.
