Answer

given,

mass of the ski = 75 Kg

speed of the skier, v = 3 m/s

time = 1.50 min = 90 s

angle of inclination, θ = 40°

distance = s x t

              = 3 x 90 = 270 m

a) W = F. d cos θ

   W = mg. d cos θ

   W = 75 x 9.8 x 270 x cos 40°

    W = 152021.52 J

work is done by the ski lift is equal to  152021.52 J

b) Power extended by the ski

 Power = \dfrac{Work\ done}{time}

Power = \dfrac{152021.52}{90}

      P = 1689.13 Watt.

power is expended by the ski lift is equal to 1689.13 W.

Einstein and Lorentz, being avid tennis players, play a fast-paced game on a court where they stand 25.0 m from each other. Bein
Lerok [7]

Answer:

A) 199.78 J

B) 9.292x10^14 J

C) 4.2x10^7 m/s

D) 0.65 m

E) 1.13x10^-8 sec

D) 2.94x10^-9 sec

Explanation:

mass of ball = 0.0580 kg

A)

If smashed at v = 83.0 m/s, KE is

KE = 0.5mv^2

= 0.5 x 0.0580 x 83.0^2

= 199.78 J

B) if returned at v = 1.79×10^8 m/s, KE will be

KE = 0.5mv^2

= 0.5 x 0.0580 x (1.79×10^8)^2

= 9.292x10^14 J

C) during Einstein's return, velocity of rabbit relative to players is

Vr = 2.21×108 m/s

Rabbit's velocity relative to ball = 2.21×10^8 - 1.79×10^8

= 4.2x10^7 m/s

D) the rabbit's speed approaches the speed of light so we consider relativistic effect. The rabbit's measured distance is

l = l°( 1 - v^2/c^2)

= 2.5(1 - 2.21/3)

= 2.5 x 0.26

= 0.65 m

E) according to the players, the time taken by the rabbit is

t = d/v = 2.5/ 2.21×10^8

= 1.13x10^-8 sec

F) the time for rabbit as measured by rabbit is relativistic

t = t°( 1 - v^2/c^2)

= 1.13x10^-8 (1 - 2.21/3)

= 1.13x10^-8 x 0.26

= 2.94x10^-9 sec
