Josh starts his sled at the top of a 2.9-m-high hill that has a constant slope of 25∘. After reaching the bottom, he slides acro

ss a horizontal patch of snow. The hill is frictionless, but the coefficient of kinetic friction between his sled and the snow is 0.06. How far from the base of the hill does he end up?

Answer:

S=48.29 m

Explanation:

Given that the height of the hill h = 2.9 m

Coefficient of kinetic friction between his sled and the snow μ = 0.08

Let u be the speed of the skier at the bottom of the hill.

By applying conservation of energy at the top and bottom of the inclined plane we get.

Potential Energy=kinetic Energy

mgh = (1/2) mu²

u² = 2gh

u²=2(9.81)(2.9)

   =56.89

u=7.54 m/s

a = - f / m

a = - μ*m*g / m

a = - μg

From equation of motion

v²- u² = 2 -μ g S

v=0 m/s

-(7.54)²=-2(0.06)(9.81)S

S=48.29 m

Earth's core is the source of the energy that drives the movement of tectonic
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

B. Convection

D. Conduction

Explanation:

Conduction and convection are the two most prominent processes that helps transfer energy outward to the earth's crust.

  • Energy within the core is a function of the radioactive decay and frictional heating.
  • Also, heat that accreted during the formation of the earth is a significant source of internal energy.
  • The heat is conducted away by the process of convection. This is possible due to temperature differences between different parts of the earth
  • Conduction is made made possible due to the metallic bodies in the core and other part of the inner earth.

Red, green, and blue light rays each enter a drop of water from the same direction.Which light ray's path through the drop will
geniusboy [140]
Blue light will bend more than the others because it has a slightly greater refractive index. This is because blue light has a shorter wavelength and more energy, meaning it has to slow down more than the others when it hits the water.
