A force of 60 N is applied to a skier to pull him along a horizontal surface so that his speed remains constant. If the coeffici

ent of friction of the skis on snow is 0.05, then what is the weight of the skier?

Answer:

1200\ \text{N}

Explanation:

F = Force on the skier = 60 N

\mu = Coefficient of friction = 0.05

w = Weight of skier

Force is given by

F=\mu w

\Rightarrow w=\dfrac{F}{\mu}

\Rightarrow w=\dfrac{60}{0.05}=\dfrac{6000}{5}

\Rightarrow w=1200\ \text{N}

Weight of the skier on which the force is being applied is 1200\ \text{N} .

if the angular momentum of a rigid body is changing, does that mean that there must be a net torque acting on the body?
masha68 [24]

The attribute of any rotating object determined by the product of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity is known as angular momentum.

<h3>What is Angular Momentum?</h3>
  • Without a kickstand, attempting to balance while getting on a bicycle will definitely result in you falling off. However, these wheels gain angular momentum once you begin pedaling. They're going to be resistant to change, which will make balance simpler.
  • The definition of angular momentum is:  any rotating object's characteristic determined by moment of inertia times angular velocity.
  • It is a characteristic of rotating bodies determined by the sum of their moment of inertia and angular velocity. Since it is a vector quantity, the direction must also be taken into account in addition to the magnitude.
  • Angular Momentum Examples : We encounter this property frequently, whether knowingly or unknowingly.
  • The following provides some examples : Ice-skater
  • In order to begin a spin, an ice skater starts with her hands and legs spread widely from the center of her body. She moves her hands and leg closer to her body when she needs to spin with more angular velocity, though.
  • As a result, she conserves angular momentum and spins faster.

A CD has to rotate under the readout-laser with a constant linear velocity of 1.25 m/s. If the laser is at a position 3.7 cm fro
Savatey [412]

Answer:N=322.53 rpm

Explanation:

Given

Linear velocity (v)=1.25 m/s

Position from center is 3.7 cm

we know

v=\omega \times r

1.25\times 100=\omega \times 3.7

\omega =\frac{125}{3.7}=33.78

and \frac{2\pi N}{60}=\omega

N=\frac{\omega \times 60}{2\pi }

N=\frac{33.78\times 60}{2\pi }

N=322.53 rpm

When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion?
fomenos
The correct answer is answer choice C. +1. Since electrons have negative charges, losing one electron will cause the atom to have a positive charge of 1. This charge comes from the protons, which, until one electron was lost, balanced out the negative charge of the electrons and caused the atom to be neutral.

Puck B has twice the mass of puck A. Starting from rest, both pucks are pulled the same distance across frictionless ice by stri
gogolik [260]

Answer:

(a) 1 : 2

(b) same

Explanation:

Let the mass of puck A is m and the mass of puck B is 2 m.

initial speed for both the pucks is same as u and the distance is same for both is s.

let the tension is T for same.

The kinetic energy is given by

K = 0.5 mv^2

(a) As the speed is same, so the kinetic energy depends on the mass.

So, kinetic energy of A : Kinetic energy of B = m : 2m  = 1 : 2

(b) A the distance s same so the final velocities are also same.
