Answer:
Explanation:
Given,
- Work done by the rope 900 m/s.
- Angle of inclination of the slope =

- Initial speed of the skier = v = 1.0 m/s
- Length of the inclined surface = d = 8.0 m
part (a)
The rope is doing the work against the gravity on the skier to uplift up to the inclined surface. Therefore the work done by the rope is equal to the work done on the skier due to the gravity

In both cases the height attained by the skier is equal. and the work done by gravity does not depend upon the speed of the skier.
part (b)
- Initial speed of the skier = v = 1.0 m/s.
Rate of the work done by the rope is power of the rope.

Part (c)
- Initial speed of the skier = v = 2.0 m/s.
Rate of the work done by the rope is power of the rope.

Answer:
(a) ω = 1.57 rad/s
(b) ac = 4.92 m/s²
(c) μs = 0.5
Explanation:
(a)
The angular speed of the merry go-round can be found as follows:
ω = 2πf
where,
ω = angular speed = ?
f = frequency = 0.25 rev/s
Therefore,
ω = (2π)(0.25 rev/s)
<u>ω = 1.57 rad/s
</u>
(b)
The centripetal acceleration can be found as:
ac = v²/R
but,
v = Rω
Therefore,
ac = (Rω)²/R
ac = Rω²
therefore,
ac = (2 m)(1.57 rad/s)²
<u>ac = 4.92 m/s²
</u>
(c)
In order to avoid slipping the centripetal force must not exceed the frictional force between shoes and floor:
Centripetal Force = Frictional Force
m*ac = μs*R = μs*W
m*ac = μs*mg
ac = μs*g
μs = ac/g
μs = (4.92 m/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)
<u>μs = 0.5</u>
Answer:
t = 1.58 s
Explanation:
given,
Speed of ranger, v = 56 km/h
v = 56 x 0.278 = 15.57 m/s
distance, d = 65 m
deceleration,a = 3 m/s²
reaction time = ?
using stopping distance formula


t is the reaction time

t = 1.58 s
hence, the reaction time of the ranger is equal to 1.58 s.
Answer:
C) 100 joules
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of an object is given by:

where m is the mass of the object and v its speed.
In this problem, we have an object of mass m = 50 kg and v = 2 m/s, so by using the formula we can find its kinetic energy:
