A skateboarder drops in off the top of one side of the half pipe shown below. She does not push off and starts from rest. She st

ands straight as she skates down one side and up the other. She expected to get to the top of other side but didn’t make it. The skateboarder recalled the law of conservation of energy from science and didn’t understand why she didn’t make it to the top of the other side.
Which of the following actions would help the skater reach the top of the other side of the half pipe?


Lubricate the wheels in order to reduce frictional force that is causing the skateboard to lose velocity and bend down while skating off the side and bottom of the half pipe.


Hold a weight in order to increase her mass and cause the skateboard to move with a greater velocity down the half pipe.


Sit on the skateboard in order to lower her center of mass and increase the potential energy of the skateboard.


Push off at the bottom of the half pipe in order to replace lost energy and add kinetic energy to the skateboard.

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

C)the right cord pulls on the pulley with greater force than the left cord

Explanation:

As we can see the figure that B is connected to the right string while A is connected to the left string

Now force equation for B as it will move downwards is given as

(2m)g - T_B = (2m)a

similarly for block A which will move upwards we can write the equation as

T_A - mg = ma

now we know that pulley is also rotating so the tangential acceleration of the rope at the contact point with pulley must be same as that of acceleration of the blocks

so here pulley will rotate clockwise direction

So tension in the right string must be more than the left string

So correct answer will be

C)the right cord pulls on the pulley with greater force than the left cord

In a game of egg-toss, you and a partner are throwing an egg back and forth trying not to break it. Given your knowledge of mome
lutik1710 [3]
F=dP/dt.  So you want the momentum to change as slowly as possible in time to minimize the force.  So as you catch the egg, let your hand move backward with it for awhile, slowly bringing it to a stop.  If you hold your hand steady when you catch it the force due to the impact could break it.

what kind of weather would u assosiate with higher perssure system? How does the density, humidity and air motion compare to tha
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Low pressure systems typically arrive with storms and clouds. Air motion is usually upwards, as heated are is less dense and more buoyant than cooler air. A high pressure system is typically cooler than its counter-part, and skies are usually clear. Low pressure systems carry more water vapor due to rising hot air cooling and condensing.

Why the greater the depth, the greater the pressure?
Tatiana [17]
Well, the reason behind this is because water depth (I assume you're talking about water/liquid) increases the pressure because of the weight and volume of the water above. I hope this helps! ~Mia
