Current Attempt in Progress
Flying Circus of Physics
A skilled skier knows to jump upward before reaching a downward slope. Consider a jump in
which the launch speed is vo = 13.5 m/s, the launch angle is 0o = 9.7", the initial course is
approximately flat, and the steeper track has a slope of 12.4°. Figure (a) shows a prejump that
allows the skier to land on the top portion of the steeper track. Figure (b) shows a jump at the edge
of the steeper track. In Figure (a), the skier lands at approximately the launch level. (a) In the
landing, what is the angle between the skier's path and the slope? In Figure (b), (b) how far below
the launch level does the skier land and (c) what is p? (The greater fall and greater can result in
loss of control in the landing.)
