Answer:
His kinetic energy increases, potential energy decreases
The sum of kinetic and potential energy is a constant at any instant before he comes to rest.
Explanation:
Snowboarder is starting from a height and moving to the down direction. As he moves down his velocity increases, we know that kinetic energy is given by the expression 
, so as he moves his kinetic energy increases.
When the snowboarder is starting his potential energy is maximum(Potential energy = mgh), as he comes down his potential energy decreases.
Based on this we can conclude that the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy is a constant at any instant for a snowboarder before he comes to rest.
mgh+= Constant
Complete question:
A college dormitory room measures 14 ft wide by 13 ft long by 6 ft high. Weight density of air is 0.07 lbs/ft3. What is the weight of air in it under normal conditions?
Answer:
the weight of the air is 76.44 lbs
Explanation:
Given;
dimension of the dormitory, = 14 ft by 13 ft by 6 ft
density of the air, = 0.07 lbs/ft³
The volume of the air in the dormitory room = 14 ft x 13 ft x 6 ft
= 1092 ft³
The weight of the air = density x volume
= 0.07 lbs/ft³ x 1092 ft³
= 76.44 lbs
Therefore, the weight of the air is 76.44 lbs
Answer:
ni = 2.04e19
Explanation:
we know that in semiconductor like intrinsic, when electron leave the band, it leave a hole in valence band so we have
n = p = ni
from intrinsic carrier concentration
1.7 = ni * 1.6*10^{-19} * (.35 + .17)
ni = 2.014 *10^{19} m^{-3}
ni = 2.04e19
