Complete question is;
A ski jumper travels down a slope and leaves the ski track moving in the horizontal direction with a speed of 24 m/s. The landing incline below her falls off with a slope of θ = 59◦ . The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².
What is the magnitude of the relative angle φ with which the ski jumper hits the slope? Answer in units of ◦
Answer:
14.08°
Explanation:
The time covered will be given by the formula;
t = (2V_x•tan θ)/g
t = (2 × 24 × tan 59)/9.8
t = 8.152 s
Now, the slope of the flight path at the point of impact will be given by the formula;
tan α = V_y/V_x
We are given V_x = 24 m/s
V_y will be gotten from the formula;
v = gt
Thus;
V_y = gt
V_y = 9.8 × (8.152) = 78.89 m/s
Thus;
tan α = 78.89/24
tan α = 3.2871
α = tan^(-1) 3.2871
α = 73.08°
Thus ;
Relative angle φ = α - θ = 73.08 - 59 = 14.08°
Answer:
Energy needed = 1100 kJ
Explanation:
Energy needed = Change in kinetic energy
Initial velocity = 15 m/s
Mass, m = 1600 kg
Final velocity = 40 m/s
Energy needed = Change in kinetic energy = 1280000-180000 = 1100000J
Energy needed = 1100 kJ
Answer:
<em>a) Fvt cosθ</em>
<em>b) Fv cosθ</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
Each horse exerts a force = F
the rope is inclined at an angle = θ
speed of each horse = v
a) In time t, the distance traveled d = speed x time
i.e d = v x t = vt
also, the resultant force = F cosθ
Work done W = force x distance
W = F cosθ x vt = <em>Fvt cosθ</em>
<em></em>
b) Power provided by the horse P = force x speed
P = F cosθ x v
P = <em>Fv cosθ</em>
Answer:
I = 4.75 A
Explanation:
To find the current in the wire you use the following relation:
(1)
E: electric field E(t)=0.0004t2−0.0001t+0.0004
ρ: resistivity of the material = 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters
J: current density
The current density is also given by:
(2)
I: current
A: cross area of the wire = π(d/2)^2
d: diameter of the wire = 0.205 cm = 0.00205 m
You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1), and you solve for the current I:
Next, you replace for all variables:
hence, the current in the wire is 4.75A
Newton's third law tells us that for every force there is an equal and opposite force. This means that if Anna exerts a force of 20 Newtons on the box, the box exerts a force of 20 Newtons on Anna.
