Holding onto a tow rope moving parallel to a frictionless ski slope, a 61.8 kg skier is pulled up the slope, which is at an angl
e of 6.8° with the horizontal. What is the magnitude Frope of the force on the skier from the rope when (a) the magnitude v of the skier's velocity is constant at 2.47 m/s and (b) v = 2.47 m/s as v increases at a rate of 0.109 m/s2?
1 answer:
Answer:
a) Frope= 71.7 N
b) Frope=6.7 N
Explanation:
In the figure the skier is simulated as an object, "a box".
a) At constant velocity we can say that the object is in equilibrium, so we apply the Newton's first law:
∑F=0
Frope=w*sen6.8°
Frope=71.71N
Take into account that w is the weight that is calculated as mass per gravitiy constant:
w=m*g
b) In this case the system has an acceleration of 0.109m/s2. Then, we apply Newton's second law of motion:
F=m*a
F=61.8Kg*0.109m/s2
Frope=6.73N

v = 5.34[m/s]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. This theorem tells us that the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work on or performed by a body must be equal to the mechanical energy in the final state.
Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of energies, kinetic, potential, and elastic.
E₁ = mechanical energy at initial state [J]
In the initial state, we only have kinetic energy, potential energy is not had since the reference point is taken below 1.5[m], and the reference point is taken as potential energy equal to zero.
In the final state, you have kinetic energy and potential since the car has climbed 1.5[m] of the hill. Elastic energy is not available since there are no springs.
E₂ = mechanical energy at final state [J]
Now we can use the first statement to get the first equation:
where:
W₁₋₂ = work from the state 1 to 2.
where:
h = elevation = 1.5 [m]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]
Answer:
b. 9.5°C
Explanation:
= Mass of ice = 50 g
= Initial temperature of water and Aluminum = 30°C
= Latent heat of fusion =
= Mass of water = 200 g
= Specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg⋅°C
= Mass of Aluminum = 80 g
= Specific heat of Aluminum = 900 J/kg⋅°C
The equation of the system's heat exchange is given by
The final equilibrium temperature is 9.50022°C
