A 66.0−kg short-track ice skater is racing at a speed of 10.0 m/s when he falls down and slides across the ice into a padded wal

l that brings him to rest. Assuming that he doesn't lose any speed during the fall or while sliding across the ice, how much work is done by the wall while stopping the ice skater?

7 0

Answer:

3300J

Explanation:

Work done is the energy that is lost by the skater

Formula for workdone = 1/2*mV^2

m = 66kg

V = 10m/s

Work done = 1/2 * 66 * 10^2

= 3300J

A simple pendulum has length of 820mm. Calculate the frequency (g = 9.8 ms -2)<br>​
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf f=0.55 \ Hz}

Explanation:

<u>Given Data:</u>

Length = l = 820 mm = 0.82 m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 ms⁻²

<u>Required:</u>

Frequency = f = ?

<u>Formula:</u>

\displaystyle f =\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }

<u>Solution:</u>

\displaystyle f =\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{g}{l} } \\\\Put\ the\ givens\\\\f=\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{9.8}{0.82} }\\\\ f = 0.159 \times \sqrt{11.95} \\\\f=0.159 \times 3.457\\\\f=0.55 \ Hz\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}

Which of the conductor has the greatest resistance? ​
frozen [14]

Explanation:

R = V/I

Since this is an I/V graph, the greater the slope of the line the lower the R value.

Hence we find the line with the smallest slope, which is conductor M.

Joe is attempting to ramp his bicycle over a row of burning tires. If the ramp has a launch angle of 20 degrees, and Joe can ped

Answer is 6 tires.

This is a projectile question.

First make sure units are consistent - express speed in m/s.

20 km/h = 20000m / 3600 s = 5.56 m/s

Assume the takeoff point of the ramp is at ground level (height, h, = 0m). We need to determine how long Joe is in the air, and use that time to calculate the horizontal distance he traveled.

Joe is traveling 5.56 m/s on a ramp angled at 20 degrees. There are vertical and horizontal components to his speed:

Vertical speed = 5.56sin20 = 1.90 m/s
Horizontal speed = 5.56cos20 = 5.22 m/s

An easy way to proceed is to calculate the time it takes for Joe’s vertical speed to reach 0m/s - this represents the time when Joe is at his maximum height and is therefore halfway through the trip. Double whatever time this is to find the total time of the trip. Remember he is decelerating due to gravity:

Time to peak:
a = Δv / Δt
-9.8 = -1.9 / Δt
Δt = 0.19s

Total trip time:
0.19 x 2 = 0.38s

Now that we have the total tome Joe is in the air, we can find the horizontal distance he traveled:

v = d / t
5.22 = d / 0.38
d = 1.98m

Now divide this total distance by the length of an individual tire to find the number of tires he will clear:

1.98 / 0.3 = 6.6 tires

Therefore he can jump 6 tires safely (he will land in the middle of the 7th tire).

Lots of steps I know but just try to think of the situation and keep track of the vertical and horizontal things!
