Part a.
Refer to the diagram shown below.

m = 65 kg, the mass of the skier
θ = 30°, the angle of the incline
μ = 0.1, the coefficient of friction
W = mg , the weight of the skier
N =  mg cosθ, the normal reaction
F = mg sinθ, the component of the weight acting down the hill
R = μN, the frictional force resisting motion down the plane
a = the acceleration down the plane.

The weight is
W = mg  = (65 kg)*(9.8 m/s)  = 637 N

Part b.
The normal force is
N = (637 N)*cos(30) =  551.658 N

The frictional force is
R = 0.1(551.658 N) = 55.1658 N

Part c.
Calculate the component of the weight acting down the hill.
F = mg sin(30) = (637 N)*sin(30) = 318.5 N

The equation of motion is
ma = F - R
(65 kg)*(a m/s²) = 318.5 - 55.1658 N
a = 263.3342/65 = 4.05 m/s²

Answers:
N = 551.7 N
a = 4.05 m/s²

If a child starts from rest at point A and lands in the water at point B, a horizontal distance L = 2.52 m from the base of the
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

The height of the water slide is 0.878 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 2.52 m

Suppose Children slide down a friction less water slide that ends at a height of 1.80 m above the pool.

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Put the value in the equation

1.80=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times t^2

t^2=\dfrac{1.80\times2}{9.8}

t=\sqrt{\dfrac{1.80\times2}{9.8}}

t=0.606\ sec

We need to calculate the velocity

Using formula of velocity

v = \dfrac{d}{t}

Put the value into the formula

v=\dfrac{2.52}{0.606}

v=4.15\ m/s

We need to calculate height

Using conservation of energy

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}

Put the value into the formula

h=\dfrac{4.15^2}{2\times9.8}

h=0.878\ m

Hence, The height of the water slide is 0.878 m.

A 5.0 kg block hangs from the ceiling by a mass-less rope. A Second block with a mass of 10.0 kg is attached to the first block
gayaneshka [121]

The tension in the first and second rope are; 147 Newton and 98 Newton respectively.

Given the data in the question

  • Mass of first block; m_1 = 5.0kg
  • Mass of second block, m_2 =10kg
  • Tension on first rope; T_1 =\ ?
  • Tension on second rope; T_2 =\ ?

To find the Tension in each of the ropes, we make use of the equation from Newton's Second Laws of Motion:

F = m\ *\ a

Where F is the force, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration ( In this case the block is under gravity. Hence ''a" becomes acceleration due to gravity  g = 9.8m/s^2 )

For the First Rope

Total mass hanging on it; m_T = m_1 + m_2 = 5.0kg + 10.0kg = 15.0kg

So Tension of the rope;

F = m\ * \ g\\\\F = 15.0kg \ * 9.8m/s^2\\\\F = 147 kg.m/s^2\\\\F = 147N

Therefore, the tension in the first rope is 147 Newton

For the Second Rope

Since only the block of mass 10kg is hang from the second, the tension in the second rope will be;

F = m\ * \ g\\\\F = 10.0kg \ * 9.8m/s^2\\\\F = 98 kg.m/s^2\\\\F = 98N

Therefore, the tension in the second rope is 98 Newton

How long will it take a plane to fly 1256km<br> if it travels 500km/hr?
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.51 s</h3>

Explanation:

The time taken can be found by using the formula

t =  \frac{d}{v}  \\

d is the distance

v is the velocity

From the question we have

t =  \frac{1256}{500}  \\  = 2.512

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.51 s</h3>

Hope this helps you

During a trial run, race car A starts from rest and accelerates uniformly along a straight level track for a particular interval
kondor19780726 [428]
Answer: car B has travelled 4times as far as Car A

d=vi*t+1/2at^2

No initial velocity so equation becomes;

d=1/2at^2 and the acceleration is the same between both only time is different;

Car A d=1/2a(1)^2

Car B d=1/2a(2)^2

Car A d= 1^2=1

Car B d= 2^2=4

Car B d=4*Car A

So car B has travelled 4 times as far as car A
