A speed skater goes around a turn with a 31 m radius. The skater has a speed of 14 m/s and experiences a centripetal force of 46

0 N. What is the mass of the skater?

Answer:

Mass of the skater, m = 72.75 kg

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the circular path, r = 31 m

Speed of the skater, v = 14 m/s

Centripetal force, F = 460 N

We need to find the mass of the skater. It can be determined using the formula of centripetal force. It is given by :

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

m=\dfrac{Fr}{v^2}

m=\dfrac{460\ N\times 31\ m}{(14\ m/s)^2}

m = 72.75 kg

So, the mass of the skater is 72.75 kg. Hence, this is the required solution.

While running at a constant velocity, how should you throw a ball with respect to you so that you can catch it yourself?
timurjin [86]
You are running at constant velocity in the x direction, and based on the 2D definition of projectile motion, Vx=Vxo. In other words, your velocity in the x direction is equal to the starting velocity in the x direction. Let's say the total distance in the x direction that you run to catch your own ball is D (assuming you have actual values for Vx and D). You can then use the range equation, D= (2VoxVoy)/g, to find the initial y velocity, Voy. g is gravitational acceleration, -9.8m/s^2. Now you know how far to run (D), where you will catch the ball (xo+D), and the initial x and y velocities you should be throwing the ball at, but to find the initial velocity vector itself (x and y are only the components), you use the pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse. Because you know all three sides of the triangle, you can also solve for the angle you should throw the ball at, as that is simply arctan(y/x).

How does air pressure change with altitude?
charle [14.2K]
Air pressure changes with altitude because of issues related to gravity. Molecules have more weight the closer they are to the Earth and more of them move to lower elevations as a result; this causes increased pressure because there are more molecules in number and proximity. Conversely, air at higher elevations has less weight, but also forces pressure on those layers below it, resulting in the molecules closer to the Earth supporting more weight, increasing the pressure
