Answer:
h = 50.49 m
Explanation:
Data provided:
Speed of skier, u = 2.0 m/s
Maximum safe speed of the skier, v = 30.0 m/s
Mass of the skier, m = 85.0
Total work = 4000 J
Height from the starting gate = h
Now, from the law of conservation of energy
Total energy at the gate = total energy at the time maximum speed is reached
where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity
on substituting the values, we get
or
170 + 833.85 × h = 4000 + 38250
or
h = 50.49 m
the friction force provided by the brakes is 30000 N.
<h3>What is friction force?</h3>
Friction force is the force that opposes the motion between two bodies in contact.
To calculate the average friction force provided by the brakes, we apply the formula below.
Formula:
- K.E = F'd............. Equation 1
Where:
- K.E = Kinetic energy of the train
- F' = Friction force provided by the brakes
- d = distance
Make F' the subject of the equation
- F' = K.E/d............ Equation 2
From the question,
Given:
Substitute these values into equation 2
- F' = (8.1 ×10⁶)/270
- F' = 30000 N
Hence, the friction force provided by the brakes is 30000 N

C. A 1200kg car is going 15m/s
Move the decimal point to:
Left : (if the exponent of ten is a negative number -) ... OUR CASE HERE (-2)
or to
Right : (if the exponent is positive +).
You should move the point as many times as the exponent indicates.
Do not write the power of ten anymore.
So, standard form is:
Two points to the left {Exponent of Ten is Negative (-2)}
0.059 ... (without the 10)
