A 64 kg cross-country skier glides over snow. Thecoefficient
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The distance traveled by the skier is 5.309 km

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the skier, m = 64 kg

Coefficient of friction between the ski and the snow, \mu_{k} = 0.50

Mass of snow, M = 5.0 kg

Now,

To calculate the distance, 's' traveled by the skier, in order to melt 5.0 kg of snow:

We know that:

f = \mu_{k}N

where

\mu_{k} = coefficient of friction

N = Normal Reaction

N = mg

Thus

f = \mu_{k}mg                           (1)

Also,

fs = ML_{f}                                  (2)  

where

L_{f} = 3.33\times 10^{5}\ J/kg = Latent Heat of fusion

Thus from eqn (1) and (2):

s = \frac{ML_{f}}{\mu_{k}mg}

s = \frac{5\times 3.33\times 10^{5}}{0.50\times 64\times 9.8}

s = 5.309 km

A surface is bombarded by particles, each of mass small 'm', which have velocity
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

B. 2nmv

Explanation:

Pressure is force over area.

P = F / A

Force is mass times acceleration.

F = ma

Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time.

a = Δv / Δt

Therefore:

F = m Δv / Δt

P = m Δv / (A Δt)

The total mass is nm.

The change in velocity is Δv = v − (-v) = 2v.

A = 1 and Δt = 1.

Plugging in:

P = (nm) (2v) / (1 × 1)

P = 2nmv

Why does an object in motion stay in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer: A) because forces are what stop and start motion

Explanation:

From Newton's first law, an object tends to stay in state of rest or motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced external force. This is also known law of inertia. This is because a force can stop or start a motion. A force cause body to accelerate to decelerate otherwise the body continues with constant speed.
