The total work is

         (mass of the elevator, kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (9.0 m)           Joules .

A 92-kg skier is sliding down a ski slope that makes an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal direction. The coefficient of k
9966 [12]

Answer:

a = 4.05 m/s²

Explanation:

Known data

m= 92 kg  : mass of the  skier

θ =30°  :angle θ of the ski slope  with respect to the horizontal direction

μk= 0.10 : coefficient of kinetic friction

g = 9.8 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass s (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

We define the x-axis in the direction parallel to the movement of the block on the ramp and the y-axis in the direction perpendicular to it.

Forces acting on the skier

W: Weight of the skier : In vertical direction

N : Normal force : perpendicular to the ski slope

f : Friction force: parallel to the ski slope

Calculated of the W

W= m*g

W=  92kg* 9.8 m/s² = 901,6 N

x-y weight components

Wx= Wsin θ= 901,6 N *sin 30° = 450.8 N

Wy= Wcos θ = 901,6 N *cos 30° =780.8 N

Calculated of the N

We apply the formula (1)

∑Fy = m*ay    ay = 0

N - Wy = 0

N = Wy

N = 780.8 N

Calculated of the f

f = μk* N=  0.10*780.8 N  

f = 78.08 N

We apply the formula (1) to calculated acceleration of the skier:

∑Fx = m*ax  ,  ax= a  : acceleration of the block

Wx - f = m*a

450.8- 78.08 = ( 92)*a

372.72 =  (92)*a

a = (372.72)/ (92)

a = 4.05 m/s²

what is the acceleration of a bowling ball that starts at rest and moves 300m down the gutter in 22.4 sec
exis [7]
<span>Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time taken. It has both magnitude and direction. In this problem, the change in velocity would first have to be calculated. Velocity is distance divided by time. Therefore, the velocity here would be 300 m divided by 22.4 seconds. This gives a velocity of 13.3928 m/s. Since acceleration is velocity divided by time, it would be 13.3928 divided by 22.4, giving a final solution of 0.598 m/s^2.</span>

Scotesia swims from the north end to the south end of a 50.0 m pool in 20.0 s. As she begins to make the return trip , Sean, who
slega [8]

Answer:

a) 2.5m/s

b) 0.91m/s

c) 0m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity can be said to be the ratio of the displacement with respect to time.

Average speed on the other hand is the ratio of distance in relation to time

Thus, to get the average velocity for the first half of the swim

V(average) = displacement of first trip/time taken on the trip

V(average) = 50/20

V(average) = 2.5m/s

Average velocity for the second half of the swim will be calculated in like manner, thus,

V(average) = 50/55

V(average) = 0.91m/s

Average velocity for the round trip will then be

V(average) = 0/75, [50+25]

V(average) = 0m/s

Andy is waiting at the signal. As soon as the light turns green, he accelerates his car at a uniform rate of 8.00 meters/second2
Tatiana [17]
You can reason it out like this:

-- The car starts from rest, and goes 8 m/s faster every second.

-- After 30 seconds, it's going (30 x 8) = 240 m/s.

-- Its average speed during that 30 sec is  (1/2) (0 + 240) = 120 m/s

-- Distance covered in 30 sec at an average speed of 120 m/s

                                                                           =  3,600 meters .
___________________________________

The formula that has all of this in it is the formula for
distance covered when accelerating from rest:

       Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)²

                       = (1/2) ·      (8 m/s²)     · (30 sec)²

                       =      (4 m/s²)          ·      (900 sec²)

                       =            3600 meters.

_________________________________

When you translate these numbers into units for which
we have an intuitive feeling, you find that this problem is
quite bogus, but entertaining nonetheless.

When the light turns green, Andy mashes the pedal to the metal
and covers almost 2.25 miles in 30 seconds.

How does he do that ?

By accelerating at 8 m/s².  That's about 0.82 G  !

He does zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, and at the end
of the 30 seconds, he's moving at 534 mph ! 

He doesn't need to worry about getting a speeding ticket.
Police cars and helicopters can't go that fast, and his local
police department doesn't have a jet fighter plane to chase
cars with.

Wave A has an amplitude of 2 and wave B has an amplitude of 2 as shown below. What will happen when the crest of wave A meets th
puteri [66]
Since the two waves have equal amplitudes, if the crest of one wave
meets the trough of the other one, they'll add to produce a level of zero
at that location.
