Answer:

374 N

Explanation:

N = normal force acting on the skier

m = mass of the skier = 82.5

From the force diagram, force equation perpendicular to the slope is given as

N = mg Cos18.7

μ = Coefficient of friction = 0.150

frictional force is given as

f = μN

f = μmg Cos18.7

F = force applied by the rope

Force equation parallel to the slope is given as

F - f - mg Sin18.7 = 0

F - μmg Cos18.7 - mg Sin18.7 = 0

F = μmg Cos18.7 + mg Sin18.7

F = (0.150 x 82.5 x 9.8) Cos18.7 + (82.5 x 9.8) Sin18.7

F = 374 N

How do we get this equation ??<br><br><br> H=V^2÷R

lesantik [10]

$H=\frac{V^2}{R}\times t$ is the equation that represents the Joule's law of heating.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Joule's law of heating defines the heat generated by any current flowing conductor is directly proportional to

1. Square of Current (I²),

2. Resistance of the conductor (R)

3. Time for which current is passed (t)

Hence, Heat generated = $H = I^2 Rt$ .....................(1)

By Ohm's Law, the potential difference (V) across a conductor is directly proportional to the current(I) flowing through it. The constant of proportionality is termed as resistance of the conductor (R).

$V\ \alpha\ I\\V=I\times R$ ...............................................(2)

From (2), Current (I) can be rewritten as

$I = \frac{V}{R}$ ........................................................(3)

Substituting (3) in (1), we get

$H = I^2\times R\times t \\=(\frac{V}{R} )^2\times R\times t\\\\=\frac{V^2}{R^2}\times R\times t = \frac{V^2}{R}\times t\\\\ H =\frac{V^2}{R}\times t$

When serving a tennis ball, a player hits the ball when its velocity is zero (at the highest point of a vertical toss). The racq

Lilit [14]

Answer:60 gm

Explanation:

Given

initial velocity of ball $u=0$

Force exerted by racquet $F=540 N$

time period of force $t=5\ ms$

final velocity of ball $v=45\ m/s$

Racquet imparts an impulse to the ball which is given by

$J=F\Delta t=\Delta P$

$J=540\times \Delta t=m(45-0)$

$m=\frac{540\times 5\times 10^{-3}}{45}$

$m=60\ gm$
