Explanation:

The SI unit of power is the kilogram-meter2 per second cubed, which is called the watt (1 W = 1 kg-m2/s3). Since power is the energy used per unit of time, it is derived as the energy/time quotient.

Kelvin is a fundamental unit! It's a lot easier to measure temperature than to measure the motion of component particles. Hence, we can accept it as a fundamental quantity. Time is said to be a fundamental unit because it is not dependent on one or more units

Answer:

From the negative to the positive cable.

Explanation:

The electrons have negative charge, which means that the negative terminal of the battery will suply the electrons, thus they are present in excess on the negative cable and will jump from it to the positive cable. This current direction is called real current.

How can hypotheses best be tested

Lerok [7]

In order for a hypothesis to be tested, and experiment needs to be designed.

Many trials need to be runned in order to get accurate results and to form a valid conclusion that can prove or disprove the hypothesis

The 60.0 kg skier shown below is skiing down a 35.0 degree incline where the magnitude of the friction force is 38.5N

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

a) 4.98m/s²

b) 481.66N

Explanation:

a) Using the Newtons second law of motion

$\sum F_x = ma_x\\F_m - F_f = ma_x\\Wsin \theta - F_f = ma_x\\mgsin \theta - F_f = ma_x\\$

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Fm is the moving force acting along the plane

Ff is the frictional force opposing the moving froce

a is the acceleration of the skier

Given

m = 60kg

g = 9.8m/s²

$\theta$ = 35°

Ff = 38.5N

Required

acceleration of the skier a

Substituting into the formula;

$60(9.8)sin 35^0 - 38.5 = 60a\\588sin35^0 - 38.5 = 60a\\337.26 - 38.5 = 60a\\298.76 = 60a\\a = 298.76/60\\a = 4.98m/s^2\\$

Hence the acceleration of the skier is 4.98m/s²

b) The normal force on the skier is expressed as;

N = Wcosθ

N = mgcosθ

N = 60(9.8)cos 35°

N = 588cos 35°

N = 481.66N

Hence the normal force on the skier is 481.66N
