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 .

A reactor operating at 1 MW is scrammed by instantaneous insertion of $5.00 of negative reactivity. Approximately how long does
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

time is 3333.33 min or 55.55 hr

Explanation:

given data

reactor operating = 1 MW

negative reactivity =  $5

power = 1 miliwatt

to find out

how long does it take

solution

we know here power coefficient that is

power coefficient = \frac{10^{6} }{10^{6} }

power coefficient = 1

so time required to reach power is

power =  reactivity × time / power coefficient + reactor operating

1 × 10^{-3} = -5 t / 1  +  1 × 10^{6}

5t =  10^{6} - 10^{-3}

t = 199999.99 sec

so time is 3333.33 min or 55.55 hr

I think this is AWESOME, but I think the last sentence of your conclusion is a bit off. <span> "If someone has an allergy to oil then they can still eat cake because applesauce makes an amazing substitute for oil." I think that you should say "This recipe is great for those who cannot eat/drink oil, the applesauce is an amazing substitute for oil."

I hope I helped! -Wajiha</span>

When do dementia come about
Cerrena [4.2K]
Dementia is a brain disease that causes a decline in memory and cognitive functioning at a much more rapid rate that is expected due to normal aging. There is no known cure and no set age that dementia can occur, but roughly 10% of people will develop it at some point in their lives. It typically affects older people and about 50% of people over 85 have dementia.
