Explanation:

We know from newton's 2nd law that F= m/a. That is force directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to acceleration. F is same for the skier and Earth but mass is different for both. m for earth is way larger than the m for skier. So, for constant Force , a of Earth must very small as compared with a of the skier.

kondaur [170]
<span>The force of static friction F equals the coefficient of friction u times the normal force N the object exerts on the surface: F = uN. N is the centripetal force of the wall on the people; N = ma_N, where m is the mass of the people and a_N is the centripetal acceleration. The people will not slip down if F is greater than the force of gravitation: F = uma_N > mg, or u > g/a_N. a_N is the velocity v of the people squared divided by the radius of the room r: a_N = v^2/r. The circumference of the room is 2 pi r = 28.3 m. So v = 28.3 * 0.8 m/sec = 22.6 m/sec. So a_N = 114 m/sec^2. g = 9.81 m/sec^2, so u must be at least 9.81/114 = 0.086.</span>

1. A 4-N force is used to move an object 2 m in 10 s. Which of the following is the power generated while moving the object?
guajiro [1.7K]

Power is the work done per unit time. Therefore,

\begin{gathered} p=\frac{w}{t} \\ \text{where} \\ w=\text{work done} \\ t=\text{time} \end{gathered}

Therefore,

\begin{gathered} \text{work done=fd} \\ f=force=4N \\ d=\text{displacement}=2m \\ t=2\sec s \\ p=\frac{fd}{t}=\frac{4\times2}{10}=\frac{8}{10}=0.8watts \end{gathered}
