1 answer:

pav-90 [236]2 years ago

8 0

Answer:

Dividing mass by volume

Explanation:

Density of a substance is defined as the mass per unit volume of the same substance. Assuming the mass of the substance is 10 Kg and it displaces volume equivalent to 5 cc then its volume will be 10/5= 2 Kg/cc. Basically, to get the density of a substance, we divide the given mass by volume

A 62 kg skier is moving at 6.5 m/s on frictionless horizontal snow-covered plateau when she encounters a rough patch 3.50 m long

Degger [83]

Answer:

(A). The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B). The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of skier = 62 kg

Speed = 6.5 m/s

Length = 3.50 m

Coefficient kinetic friction = 0.30

Height = 2.5 m

(A) we need to calculate the work done by friction in crossing the patch

Using formula of work done

$W=-\mu mg\times l$

Put the value into the formula

$W=-0.30\times62\times9.8\times3.50$

$W=-637.98\ J$

The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B) we need to calculate the speed of skier

Using conservation of energy

$K.E_{i}+U_{i}-W_{friction}=K.E_{f}+U_{f}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+mgh-\mu mgl=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2+U_{f}$

Final potential energy is zero

So, $\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+mgh-\mu mgl=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2$

$\dfrac{1}{2}v_{2}^2=\dfrac{1}{2}v_{1}^2+gh-\mu gl$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{2}v_{2}^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times6.5^2+9.8\times2.5+0.30\times9.8\times3.50$

$v_{2}=\sqrt{2\times55.915}$

$v_{2}=10.57\ m/s$

The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

Hence, (A).The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B).The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.
