A 77.0 kg woman slides down a
statuscvo [17]

Assuming the woman starts at rest, she descends the slide with acceleration <em>a</em> such that

(20.3 m/s)² = 2 <em>a</em> (42.6 m)   →   <em>a</em> ≈ 4.84 m/s²

which points parallel to the slide.

The only forces acting on her, parallel to the slide, are

• the parallel component of her weight, <em>w</em> (//)

• friction, <em>f</em>, opposing her descent and pointing up the slide

Take the downward sliding direction to be positive. By Newton's second law, the net force in the parallel direction acting on the woman is

∑ <em>F</em> (//) = <em>w </em>(//) - <em>f</em> = <em>ma</em>

where <em>m</em> = 77.0 kg is the woman's mass.

Solve for <em>f</em> :

<em>mg</em> sin(42.3°) - <em>f</em> = <em>ma</em>

<em>f</em> = <em>m</em> (<em>g</em> sin(42.3°) - <em>a</em>)

<em>f</em> = (77.0 kg) ((9.80 m/s²) sin(42.3°) - 4.84 m/s²) ≈ 135 N

Compute the work <em>W</em> done by friction: multiply the magnitude of the friction by the length of the slide.

<em>W</em> = (135 N) (42.6 m) ≈ 5770 N•m = 5770 J

If the pressure of a substance is increased during a boiling process, will the temperature also increase, or will it remain cons
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

on increasing pressure, temperature will also increase.

Explanation:

Considering the ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Thus, at constant volume and number of moles, Pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of  the gas.

P ∝ T

Also,  

Also, using Gay-Lussac's law,

\frac {P_1}{T_1}=\frac {P_2}{T_2}

Thus, on increasing pressure, temperature will also increase.

Taking the density of air to be 1.29 kg/m3, what is the magnitude of the angular momentum (in kg · m2/s) of a cubic meter of air
Svet_ta [14]

The magnitude of the angular momentum of air will be 4.128 x 10^(-3) kg·m^2/s

The rotating equivalent of linear momentum in physics is called angular momentum. Because it is a conserved quantity—the total angular momentum of a closed system stays constant—it is significant in physics. Both the direction and the amplitude of angular momentum are preserved.

Given the density of air to be 1.29 kg/m3 and a wind speed of 73.0 mi/h

We have to find the magnitude of the angular momentum

Let,

ρ = Density of air = 1.29 kg/m^3

v = Speed of wind = 73.0 mi/h = 0.032 km/s

M = angular momentum of air

Let the volume of air be 1 m^3

Mass = Volume x ρ = 1 x 1.29 = 1.29 kg

Momentum = M = mass x velocity

Momentum = 1.29 x 0.0032

Momentum = 4.128 x 10^(-3) kg·m^2/s

Hence the magnitude of the angular momentum of air will be 4.128 x 10^(-3) kg·m^2/s

You fire a paintball from a paintball gun straight up into the air at 25.0 m/s. What is the ball velocity at the higher point th
iVinArrow [24]

Given :

You fire a paintball from a paintball gun straight up into the air at 25.0 m/s.

To Find :

What is the ball velocity at the higher point that the ball reaches.

Solution :

We know, when ball is moving upward acceleration due to gravity is applied downward.

So, the ball will decelerate and when ball reaches maximum height its velocity will become zero.

Therefore, ball velocity is 0 m/s at maximum height.

Hence, this is the required solution.
