A 73-kg Norwegian olympian ski champion is going down a hill sloped at 39 ◦ . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sk

is and the snow is 0.15. a. How fast is the skier going 5.0 s after starting from rest? b. After the Norwegian skier has been moving for 5.0 s, the friction of the snow suddenly increased making the net force on the skier zero. What is the new coefficient of friction? c. How fast would the skier now be going after skiing for 5.0s?

Answer:

Explanation:

net force on the skier = mg sin 39 - μ mg cos39

mg ( sin39 - μ cos39 )

= 73 x 9.8 ( .629 - .116)

= 367 N

impulse = net force x time = change in momentum .

= 367 x 5 = 1835 kg m /s

velocity of the skier after 5 s = 1835 / 73

= 25.13 m /s

b )

net force becomes zero

mg ( sin39 - μ cos39 ) = 0

μ = tan39

= .81

c )

net force becomes zero , so he will continue to go ahead with constant speed of 25.13 m /s

so he will have speed of 25.13 m /s after 5 s .

Acid rain is the direct result of acid released by burning fossil fuels. T/F
disa [49]

Answer : False.

Explanation : Acid rain is the indirect result of burning fossil fuels. As the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels releases sulfur dioxide and nitrous dioxide in the air. When it rains it gets mixed with water and forms nitric acid and sulfuric acid which causes acid rain. Acid rain is harmful.

Observe yourself breathing and count the number of times you inhale per second. During each breath you probably inhale 0.66 L of
Pavel [41]

To solve this exercise it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Robert Boyle's law where:

PV=nRT

Where,

P = Pressure

V = Volume

T = Temperature

n = amount of substance

R = Ideal gas constant

We start by calculating the volume of inhaled O_2 for it:

V = 21\% * 0.66L

V = 0.1386L

Our values are given as

P = 1atm

T=293K R = 0.083145kJ*mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Using the equation to find n, we have:

PV=nRT

n = \frac{PV}{RT}

n = \frac{(1)(0.1386)}{(0.0821)(293)}

n = 5.761*10^{-3}mol

Number of molecules would be found through Avogadro number, then

\#Molecules = 5.761*10^{-3}*6.022*10^{23}

\#Molecules = 3.469*10^{21} molecules

What are the top two gasses in the earth’s atmosphere ?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Nitrogen and oxygen are by far the most common; dry air is composed of about 78% nitrogen (N2) and about 21% oxygen (O2). Argon, carbon dioxide (CO2), and many other gases are also present in much lower amounts; each makes up less than 1% of the atmosphere's mixture of gases.
