The 1994 Winter Olympics included the aerials competition in skiing. In this event skiers speed down a ramp that slopes sharply

upward at the end. The sharp upward slope launches them into the air, where they perform acrobatic maneuvers. In the women's competition, the end of a typical launch ramp is directed 61° above the horizontal. With this launch angle, a skier attains a height of 16 m above the end of the ramp. What is the skier's launch speed?

Answer: Got It!

<em>Explanation:  </em>let s = speed at launch

v = 0 at top = s sin 63 - g t

so at top

t = s sin 63/g = .0909 s

h = 13.6 = s sin 63 t - 4.9 t^2

13.6 = .081s^2 - .0405 s^2

s^2 = 336

s = 18.3 m/s

A 100 kg roller coaster comes over the first hill at 2 m/sec (vo). The height of the first hill (h) is 20 meters. See roller dia
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

For the 100 kg roller coaster that comes over the first hill of height 20 meters at 2 m/s, we have:

1) The total energy for the roller coaster at the <u>initial point</u> is 19820 J

2) The potential energy at <u>point A</u> is 19620 J

3) The kinetic energy at <u>point B</u> is 10010 J

4) The potential energy at <u>point C</u> is zero

5) The kinetic energy at <u>point C</u> is 19820 J

6) The velocity of the roller coaster at <u>point C</u> is 19.91 m/s

1) The total energy for the roller coaster at the <u>initial point</u> can be found as follows:

E_{t} = KE_{i} + PE_{i}

Where:

KE: is the kinetic energy = (1/2)mv₀²

m: is the mass of the roller coaster = 100 kg

v₀: is the initial velocity = 2 m/s

PE: is the potential energy = mgh

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h: is the height = 20 m

The<em> total energy</em> is:

E_{t} = KE_{i} + PE_{i} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{0}^{2} + mgh = \frac{1}{2}*100 kg*(2 m/s)^{2} + 100 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*20 m = 19820 J

Hence, the total energy for the roller coaster at the <u>initial point</u> is 19820 J.

   

2) The <em>potential energy</em> at point A is:

PE_{A} = mgh_{A} = 100 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*20 m = 19620 J

Then, the potential energy at <u>point A</u> is 19620 J.

3) The <em>kinetic energy</em> at point B is the following:

KE_{A} + PE_{A} = KE_{B} + PE_{B}

KE_{B} = KE_{A} + PE_{A} - PE_{B}

Since

KE_{A} + PE_{A} = KE_{i} + PE_{i}

we have:

KE_{B} = KE_{i} + PE_{i} - PE_{B} =  19820 J - mgh_{B} = 19820 J - 100kg*9.81m/s^{2}*10 m = 10010 J

Hence, the kinetic energy at <u>point B</u> is 10010 J.

4) The <em>potential energy</em> at <u>point C</u> is zero because h = 0 meters.

PE_{C} = mgh = 100 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*0 m = 0 J

5) The <em>kinetic energy</em> of the roller coaster at point C is:

KE_{i} + PE_{i} = KE_{C} + PE_{C}            

KE_{C} = KE_{i} + PE_{i} = 19820 J      

Therefore, the kinetic energy at <u>point C</u> is 19820 J.

6) The <em>velocity</em> of the roller coaster at point C is given by:

KE_{C} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{C}^{2}

v_{C} = \sqrt{\frac{2KE_{C}}{m}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*19820 J}{100 kg}} = 19.91 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the roller coaster at <u>point C</u> is 19.91 m/s.

The magnitude of the weight of a 3.0 kg object on the surface of the earth is 29 N. True False
madreJ [45]
True

In fact, the weight of an object on the surface of the Earth is given by:
F=mg
where m is the mass of the object and g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration on Earth's surface. If we use the mass of the object, m=3.0 kg, we find
F=mg=(3.0 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=29 N

goblinko [34]

Answer: 10.6 sec

Explanation:

Because I got it right on my quiz :D

also because you can use the impulse momentum formula, Ft=m(triangle)v

so basically u do 16m/s-2m/s=14m/s and thats your triangle v (change in velocity) then multiply 14 times the mass, which is 34. Thats 476, so now you have ft=476, and you know F, the force, so all you have to do is divide 476 by 45, and you get like 10.5777777 which rounds up to 10.6!
