Answer:

3 m/s²

Explanation:

Initial Velocity, u = 18

Final velocity, v = 36

Time, t = 6 seconds

Acceleration is the change in velocity of a body with time. It obtained using the relation :

Acceleration = (v - u) / t

Acceleration = (36 - 18) / 6

Acceleration = 18 / 6

Acceleration = 3m/s²

Hence, acceleration of the skier is 3m/s²

Since force is dp/dt, the force due to radiation pressure reflected off of a solar sail can be calculated as 2 times the radiati

QveST [7]

Answer:

8.67×10⁻⁶ N/m²

Explanation:

p = Momentum of a photon

E = Energy of a photon

c = Speed of light

I = Intensity of light

Force = dp/dt

$p=\frac{E}{c}$

$\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{\frac{dE}{dt}}{c}$

As given in question

$F=2\frac{\frac{dE}{dt}}{c}$

Now F/A = Pressure

$P=\frac{2I}{c}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{2\times 1300}{3\times 10^{8}}\\\Rightarrow P=8.67\times 10^{-6}\ N/m^2$

∴ Magnitude of the pressure on the sail is 8.67×10⁻⁶ N/m²

You are designing a ski jump ramp for the next Winter Olympics. You need to calculate the vertical height h from the starting ga

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

h = 40.37 m

Explanation:

We will apply the law of conservation of energy to the skier in this case, as follows:

$Energy\ of\ skier\ at\ the\ gate = Energy\ of\ Skier\ at\ the\ end\\P.E + K.E_{i} = K.E_{f} - W_{friction}\\mgh + \frac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2 - W_{friction}\\\\mgh = \frac{1}{2}m(v_{f}^2-v_{i}^2) - W_{friction}$

where,

m = mass of skier = 77 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

vf = final speed = 30 m/s

vi = initial speed = 2 m/s

W_friction = Work done by friction and air resistance = 4000 J

Therefore,

$(77\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)h = \frac{1}{2}(77\ kg)[(30\ m/s)^2-(2\ m/s)^2] - 4000\ J\\\\h = \frac{34496\ J - 4000\ J}{755.37\ N}\\\\$
