Answer:

She is going at 30.4 m/s at the top of the 35-meter hill.    

Explanation:

We can find the velocity of the skier by energy conservation:

E_{1} = E_{2}

On the top of the hill 1 (h₁), she has only potential energy since she starts from rest. Now, on the top of the hill 2 (h₂), she has potential energy and kinetic energy.

mgh_{1} = mgh_{2} + \frac{1}{2}mv_{2}^{2}    (1)

Where:

m: is the mass of the skier

h₁: is the height 1 = 82 m

h₂: is the height 2 = 35 m

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²  

v₂: is the speed of the skier at the top of h₂ =?

Now, by solving equation (1) for v₂ we have:

v_{2}^{2} = \frac{2mg(h_{1} - h_{2})}{m}  

v_{2} = \sqrt{2g(h_{1} - h_{2})} = \sqrt{2*9.81 m/s^{2}*(82 m - 35 m)} = 30.4 m/s    

Therefore, she is going at 30.4 m/s at the top of the 35-meter hill.

I hope it helps you!

A wave travels a distance of 60cm in 3s. The distance blw successive crests of thd wave is 4cm. What is the frequency?
schepotkina [342]
Data:
ΔS = 60cm
Δt = 3s
Vm = ?

Vm = ΔS/Δt 
Vm =  \frac{60}{3}
Vm = 20cm/s

We have:

Vm = v
ΔS = λ
Δt = T

v =  \frac{\lambda}{T}
20 = \frac{\lambda}{4}
\lambda = 20*4
\lambda = 80cm

Soon:

v = \lambda*f
20 = 80*f
80f = 20
f =  \frac{20}{80} simplify( \frac{\div20}{\div20} )= \frac{1}{4}
\boxed{f = 0,25Hz}

If a 2 kg spring is compressed by exerting a force of 10 newtons a distance of 50 cm how much work is done?
Elina [12.6K]
Convert cm into meters,
50/100=0.5m

work done= 10x0.5
=5J

we dont consider the weight of the spring as it acts downwards.
