Answer

given,

diameter of the pipe is  =  (14 ft)4.27 m

minimum speed of the skater must have at very top = ?

At the topmost point of the pipe the  normal force will be equal to zero.

F = mg

centripetal force acting on the skateboard

F = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

equating both the force equation

mg = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v = \sqrt{gr}

r = d/2 = 14/ 2 = 7 ft

or

r = 4.27/2 = 2.135 m

g = 32 ft/s²   or g = 9.8 m/s²

v = \sqrt{32 \times 7}

v = 14.96 ft/s

or

v = \sqrt{9.8 \times 2.135}

v = 4.57 m/s

Find the potential energy associated with a 61-kg hiker atop New Hampshire's Mount Washington, 1900 m above sea level. Take the
Natali [406]

Answer:

The potential energy of the hiker is 1.13\times 10^6\ J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the hiker, m = 61 kg

Height above sea level, h = 1900 m

We need to find the potential energy associated with a 61-kg hiker atop New Hampshire's Mount Washington. The potential energy is given by :

E=mgh

g is the acceleration due to gravity

E=61\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1900\ m\\\\E=1.13\times 10^6\ J

So, the potential energy of the hiker is 1.13\times 10^6\ J. Hence, this is the required solution.
