Answer:

534.9 N

Explanation:

The skier weight is his mass times gravitational acceleration g

W = mg = 103 * 9.8 = 1009.4 N

This weight can be divided into 2 components, one perpendicular and the other parallel to the 32-degree slope. The parallel component would equal to

Wsin(32^0) = 1009.4sin(32^0) = 534.9 N

On Mars, where air resistance is negligible, an astronaut drops a rock from a cliff and notes that the rock falls about d meters
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

d_1 = 16 d

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the fall of the stone is ZERO

v_i = 0

also the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is g

so we have

d = v_i t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

now we have

d = 0 + \frac{1}{2}g t^2

now if the same is dropped for 4t seconds of time

then again we will use above equation

d_1 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}g(4t)^2

d_1 = 16(\frac{1}{2}gt^2)

d_1 = 16 d

A bicycle takes 8.0 seconds to accelerate at a constant rate from rest to a speed of 4.0 m/s. If the mass of the bicycle and rid
Inessa05 [86]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
Acceleration = (4 m/s) / (8 seconds)
Acceleration = 0.5 m/s²

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Force = (85 kg) x (0.5 m/s²)
Force = 42.5 Newtons

Atoms form chemical bonds to satisfy the blank rule and become blank​
Masja [62]

Answer:

Atoms form chemical bonds to satisfy the Octet rule and become Stable element.

Explanation:

  • Every atom desires to achieve total eight valence electron in their outermost shell to become stable. This rule is known as octet rule.
  • During the chemical reaction process, every element goes through the process of receiving or donating the element to complete the octet rule to become stable.
  • The electronic configuration of element having eight electrons in its valence shell is the noble gases.
