Sam, whose mass is 78 kg , stands at the top of a 11-m-high, 110-m-long snow-covered slope. His skis have a coefficient of kinetic friction on snow of 0.07. If he uses his poles to get started, then glides down, what is his speed at the bottom

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

v = 8.09   m/s

Explanation:

For this exercise we use that the work done by the friction force plus the potential energy equals the change in the body's energy.

Let's calculate the energy

       

starting point. Higher

         Em₀ = U = m gh

final point. To go down the slope

         Em_f = K = ½ m v²

The work of the friction force is

         W = fr L cos 180

to find the friction force let's use Newton's second law

Axis y

        N - W_y = 0

        N = W_y

X axis

        Wₓ - fr = ma

let's use trigonometry

        sin  θ = y / L

         sin θ = 11/110 = 0.1

         θ = sin⁻¹  0.1

          θ = 5.74º

         sin 5.74 = Wₓ / W

         cos 5.74 = W_y / W

         Wₓ = W sin 5.74

         W_y = W cos 5.74

the formula for the friction force is

         fr = μ N

         fr = μ W cos θ

Work is friction force is

         W_fr = - μ W L cos θ  

Let's use the relationship of work with energy

        W + ΔU = ΔK

         -μ mg L cos 5.74 + (mgh - 0) = 0  - ½ m v²

        v² = - 2 μ g L cos 5.74 +2 (gh)

        v² = 2gh - 2 μ gL cos 5.74

let's calculate

        v² = 2 9.8 11 - 2 0.07 9.8 110 cos 5.74

        v² = 215.6 -150.16

        v = √65.44

        v = 8.09   m/s

On a sunny day, a rooftop solar panel delivers 60 W of power to the house at an emf of 17 V. How much current flows through the panel

Answers

Answer:

3.53 amps

Explanation:

Given data

Power= 60W

Voltage= 17V

The expression relating current, power, and voltage is

P= IV

substitute

60= I*17

I= 60/17

I= 3.53 amps

Hence the current that flows is 3.53 amps

Two coils have the same number of circular turns and carry the same current. Each rotates in a magnetic field acting perpendicularly to its axis of rotation. Coil 1 has a radius of 4.5 cm and rotates in a 0.21-T field. Coil 2 rotates in a 0.39-T field. Each coil experiences the same maximum torque. What is the radius (in cm) of coil 2

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Torque acting on a coil in a magnetic field = MBsinθ where M is magnetic moment , B is magnetic field and θ is inclination of the normal to coil with direction of field.

For maximum torque sinθ = 1

Maximum torque = MB

M = NIA where N is no of turns , I is current and A is area of the coil

Maximum torque = NIAB

As maximum torque is same

N₁I₁A₁B₁ = N₂I₂A₂B₂

N₁ = N₂ , I₁ = I₂

A₁B₁ = A₂B₂

π R₁² B₁ = π R₂² B₂

4.5² x .21 = R₂² x .39

R₂² = 10.9

R₂ = 3.3 cm .

The average marathon runner can complete the 42.2-km distance of the marathon in 3 h and 30 min. If the runner's mass is 85 kg, what is the runner's average kinetic energy during the run

Answers

Answer:

the runner's average kinetic energy during the run is 476.96 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the runner, m = 85 kg

distance covered by the runner, d = 42.2 km = 42,200 m

time to complete the race, t = 3 hours 30 mins = (3 x 3600s) + (30 x 60s)

                                                                               = 12,600 s

The speed of the runner, v = d/t

                                          v = 42,200 / 12,600

                                          v = 3.35 m/s

The runner's average kinetic energy during the run is calculated as;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

K.E = ¹/₂ × 85 × (3.35)²

K.E = 476.96 J

Therefore, the runner's average kinetic energy during the run is 476.96 J.

A straight wire in a magnetic field experiences a force of 0.026 N when the current in the wire is 1.5 A. The current in the wire is changed, and the wire experiences a force of 0.063 N as a result. What is the new current

Answers

Answer:

the new current on the wire is 3.64 A.

Explanation:

Given;

first force on the wire, F₁ = 0.026 N

second force on the wire, F₂ = 0.063 N

first current on the wire, I₁ = 1.5 A

second current on the wire, I₂ = ?

The force on a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field is given as;

[tex]F = BIL(sin \theta)\\\\[/tex]

F ∝ I

[tex]\frac{F_1}{I_1} = \frac{F_2}{I_2} \\\\I_2 = \frac{F_2I_1}{F_1} \\\\I_2 = \frac{0.063\ \times\ 1.5 }{0.026} \\\\I_2 = 3.64 \ A[/tex]

Therefore, the new current on the wire is 3.64 A.

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of roller coaster = 1000 Kg

Velocity (v) of roller coaster = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

Kinetic energy is simply defined as the energy possess by an object in motion. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

KE = ½mv²

Where

KE => is the kinetic energy.

m =>is the mass of the object

V => it the velocity of the object.

With the above formula, we can obtain the kinetic energy of the roller coaster as follow:

Mass (m) of roller coaster = 1000 Kg

Velocity (v) of roller coaster = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × 1000 × 20²

KE = 500 × 400

KE = 200000 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the roller coaster is 200000 J.
