A sled is slowing down at the bottom of a snowy hill.

Physics
1 answer:
Kitty [74]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A sled and its rider are moving at a speed of along a horizontal stretch of snow, as Figure 4.24a illustrates. The snow exerts a kinetic frictional force on the runners of the sled, so the sled slows down and eventually comes to a stop. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.050. What is the displacement x of the sled?

mixas84 [53]

Solution :

Given weight of Kathy = 82 kg

Her speed before striking the water, $V_o $ = 5.50 m/s

Her speed after entering the water, $V_f$= 1.1 m/s

Time = 1.65 s

Using equation of impulse,

$dP = F \times  dT$

Here, F =  the force ,

       dT =  time interval over which the force is applied for

            = 1.65 s

       dP  = change in momentum

dP = m x dV

    $= m \times [V_f - V_o] $

    = 82 x (1.1 - 5.5)

    = -360 kg

∴ the net force acting will be

$F=\frac{dP}{dT}$

$F=\frac{-360}{1.65}$

  = 218 N

Svetach [21]
Use a=(dv/dt)         (change in velocity/ change in time)=acceleration
(1.2/5)=acceleration

F=ma (Newton's second law, Force= Mass x Acceleration

You are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the Empire State Building.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

   t_total = 23.757 s

Explanation:

This is a kinematics exercise.

Let's start by calculating the distance and has to reach the limit speed of

v = 18.8 m / s

         v = v₀ + a t₁

the elevator starts with zero speed

         v = a t₁

         t₁ = v / a

         t₁ = 18.8 / 2.40

         t₁ = 7.833 s

in this time he runs

         y₁ = v₀ t₁ + ½ a t₁²

         y₁ = ½ a t₁²

         y₁ = ½ 2.40 7.833²

         y₁ = 73.627 m

This is the time and distance traveled until reaching the maximum speed, which will be constant throughout the rest of the trip.

           x_total = x₁ + x₂

           x₂ = x_total - x₁

           x₂ = 373 - 73,627

           x₂ = 299.373 m

this distance travels at constant speed,

           v = x₂ / t₂

           t₂ = x₂ / v

           t₂ = 299.373 / 18.8

           t₂ = 15.92 s

therefore the total travel time is

           t_total = t₁ + t₂

           t_total = 7.833 + 15.92

           t_total = 23.757 s
