Answer:26.65 kJ

Explanation:

Given

mass of skier=70 kg

length of ramp=62.5 m

slope=38.4 ^{\circ}

speed=3.77 m/s

so net force on skier must be zero

Net work done will be change in Potential energy of skier

Potential Energy=mg(\Delta H)

\Delta H=62.5sin38.4=38.821 m

P.E.=70\times 9.81\times 38.82=26,658.88 J

P.E.=26.65 kJ

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

D. 2.8 × 10⁹ N

Explanation:

The force between two charges is directly proportional to the amount of charges at the two points and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the two points.

Fe= k Q₁Q₂/r²

Q₁= -0.0045 C

Q₂= -0.0025 C

r= 0.0060 m

k= 9.00 × 10 ⁹ Nm²/C²

Fe= (9.00 × 10 ⁹ Nm²/C²×-0.0045 C×-0.0025 C)/0.0060²

=2.8 × 10⁹ N

Why are bells made up of metals instead of wood?
Morgarella [4.7K]
The main reason why bells are made up of metals instead of wood is because metal is much more dense than wood, meaning that it resonates at much stronger frequencies. Wood has far too much air in it to make loud noises when struck.

A spherical snowball melts at a rate proportional to its surface area. (a) write a differential equation for its volume, v. (use
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rate of change in volume is proportional to the surface area:

dV/dt = kA

Integrating:

V = kAt + C

At t=0, V = s, so:

s = kA(0) + C

C = s

Therefore:

V = kAt + s
