A 45.0 kg skier testing a new competitive ski wax drops off a ledge, goes into a crouch and goes straight down a slope of 10.0◦

with respect to the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the snow and skis is 0.114. The skier’s speed after traveling 300 m along this slope is (in m/s):

Answer:

v = 21.03 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of skier = 45 kg        

the slope of the snow = 10.0◦      

coefficient of friction = 0.114  

distance traveled = 300 m      

speed = ?              

Acceleration = g sin θ - µ g Cos θ        

= 9.8 × Sin (10°) - 0.10 × 9.8 × Cos(10°)        

= 0.737 m/s²      

using equation of motion        

v² = u² + 2 a s        

v² = 0 + 2 × 0.737 × 300            

v = 21.03 m/s                  

Speed of skier's after travelling 300 m speed is  equal to 21.03 m/s

A boy pulls a 28.0-kg box with a 230-N force at 35° above a horizontal surface. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between t
ddd [48]

Answer:

1977.696 J

Explanation:

Given;

Weight of the box = 28.0 kg

Force applied by the boy = 230 N

angle between the horizontal and the force = 35°

Therefore,

the horizontal component of the force = 230 × cosθ

= 230 × cos 35°

= 188.405 N

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.24

Force by friction, f = μN

here,

N = Normal force = Mass × acceleration due to gravity

or

N = 28 × 9.81 = 274.68 N

therefore,

f = 0.24 × 274.68

or

f = 65.9232 N

Now,

work done by the boy, W₁ = 188.405 N × Displacement  

= 188.405 N × 30

= 5652.15 J

and,

the

work done by the friction, W₂ = - 65.9232 N × Displacement  

= - 65.9232 N × 30 m

= - 1977.696 J

[ since the friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion, therefore the workdone will be negative]

Are you better off in an accident where the hood is
horsena [70]

Answer:

you would be better off if the car bounced backwards

Explanation:

because if the hood was dismembered than you have a high chance of very bad injury but if it is just bounced back you would have less chance of getting hurt if properly sitting and seat belted.
