One of the great dangers to mountain climbers is an avalanche, in which a large mass of snow and ice breaks loose and goes on an

essentially frictionless "ride" down a mountainside on a cushion of compressed air. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . avalanche µ = 0 347 m 27.5 ◦ If you were on a 27.5 ◦ slope and an avalanche started 347 m up the slope, how much time would you have to get out of the way?

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object down a slope (neglecting friction, µ = 0) is:

a = g × sin θ

Where,

g is the acceleration due to gravity and θ is the angle of the slope.

a = (9.8 × sin (21.5º)

= 3.592 m/s²

Using equations of motion,

S = ut + 1/2at²

Since, u = 0,

S = 1/2at²

347 = 1/2 × (3.592)t²

t² = 193.21

= sqrt(193.21)

= 13.9 s.

What is the magnitude of the relative angle φ
melomori [17]

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°

A force of 200 N is applied on small piston of a pascal press. What would be the
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The force applied on the big piston is 1306.67 N

Explanation:

Given;

force applied on small piston, F₁ = 200 N

diameter of the small piston, d₁ = 4.37 cm

radius of the small piston, r₁ = d₁/2 = 2.185 cm

Area of the small piston, A₁ = πr₁² = π(2.185 cm)² = 15 cm²

Area of the big piston, A₂ = 98 cm²

The pressure of the piston is given by;

P = \frac{F}{A} \\\\\frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{F_2}{A_2}\\\\ F_2 = \frac{F_1A_2}{A_1}

Where;

F₂ is the force on big piston

F_2 = \frac{200*98}{15} \\\\F_2 = 1306.67 \ N

Therefore, the force applied on the big piston is 1306.67 N

A child is riding a merry-go-round that has an instantaneous angular speed of 1.25 rad/s and an angular acceleration of 0.745 ra
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

So the acceleration of the child will be 8.05m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given angular speed of the child \omega =1.25rad/sec

Radius r = 4.65 m

Angular acceleration \alpha =0.745rad/sec^2

We know that linear velocity is given by v=\omega r=1.25\times 4.65=5.815m/sec

We know that radial acceleration is given by a=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{5.815^2}{4.65}=7.2718m/sec^2

Tangential acceleration is given by

a_t=\alpha r=0.745\times 4.65=3.464m/sec^

So total acceleration will be a=\sqrt{7.2718^2+3.464^2}=8.05m/sec^2

A circular coil has a 10.0 cm radius and consists of 30.0 closely wound turns of wire. an externally produced magnetic field of
IrinaVladis [17]
Magnetic flux can be calculated by the product of the magnetic field and the area that is perpendicular to the field that it penetrates. It has units of Weber or Tesla-m^2. For the first question, when there is no current in the coil, the flux would be:

ΦB = BA
          A = πr^2
          A = π(.1 m)^2
          A = π/100 m^2   

 ΦB = 2.60x10^-3 T (π/100 m^2 ) ΦB = 8.17x10^-5 T-m^2 or Wb (This is only for one loop of the coil)

The inductance on the coil given the current flows in a certain direction can be calculated by the product of the total number of turns in the coil and the flux of one loop over the current passing through. We do as follows:

L = N (ΦB ) / I
L = 30 (8.17x10^-5 T-m^2) / 3.80 = 6.44x10^-4 mH
