Solve it correctly please. I will rate with 2-3 ratings. But need correct answer.
A skier is travelling horizontally across frictionless snow at 10 m/s. He goes up an also frictionless slope and his speed drops to 5 m/s at the top when he resumed moving horizontally. How high did he go?

- Neglecting air resistance, how much would I have to raise the vertical height if I wanted to double the impact speed of a falling object?arrow_forwardAn athlete jumping vertically on a trampoline leaves the surface with a velocity of 8.5 m/s upward. What maximum height does she reach? (a) 13 m (b) 2.3 m (c) 3.7 m (d) 0.27 m (e) The answer cant be determined because the mass of the athlete isnt given.arrow_forwardThe drawing shows a skateboarder moving at 6.90 m/s along a horizontal section of a track that is slanted upward by 0 = 46.0° above the horizontal at its end, which is 0.510 m above the ground. When she leaves the track, she follows the characteristic path of projectile motion. Ignoring friction and air resistance, find the maximum height H to which she rises above the end of the track.

- A child starts from rest and slides without friction from a height of h = 5.0 m along a slide next to a pool (see fiqure). She is launched from a height of 0.8 m (ignore the h/5 in the fiqure) at an angle of 240 into the air over the pool Утах th/5 What is her maximum height above the water after leaving the slide? Hint: it is possible to do this without doing projectile motion, even desirable as we are trying to learn conservation of energy; this problem does require you to use conservation of energy more than once 3.1 Xmarrow_forwardA cyclist coasts up a 10.7 degrees slope, traveling 24.0 m along the road to the top of the hill. If the cyclist's initial speed is 9.70 m/s, what is the final speed? Ignore friction and air resistance.arrow_forwardA 64 kg skier starts from rest at height H = 27 m above the end of a ski-jump ramp (see the figure). As the skier leaves the ramp, his velocity makes an angle of θ = 23° with the horizontal. Neglect the effects of air resistance and assume the ramp is frictionless.

Assuming there is no air resistance involved, which projectile has greater kinetic energy when it reaches the highest point?arrow_forward1. In a project in PE (let's assume this) you were asked to throw a golf ball from the roof of a 22.3 m tall house with an initial velocity of 14.0 m/s magnitude and directed at an angle of 50.3° above the horizontal. (a) What is the speed of the ball just before it strikes the ground? Use energy methods and ignore air resistance.

- Tarzan, in one tree, sights Jane in another tree. He grabs the end of a vine with length 20 m that makes an angle of 45° with the vertical, steps off his tree limb, and swings down and then up to Jane’s open arms. When he arrives, his vine makes an angle of 30° with the vertical. Determine whether he gives her a tender embrace or knocks her off her limb by calculating Tarzan’s speed just before he reaches Jane. Ignore air resistance and the mass of the vine.arrow_forwardIn the Marvel comic series X-Men, Colossus would sometimes throw Wolverine toward an enemy in what was called a fastball special. Suppose Colossus throws Wolverine at an angle of θ = 31.5° with respect to the ground (see figure below). Wolverine is d = 2.08 m above the ground when he is released, and he leaves Colossus's hands with a speed of vi = 18.2 m/s. (a) Using conservation of energy and the components of the initial velocity, find the maximum height attained by Wolverine during the flight. _____m (b) Using conservation of energy, what is Wolverine's speed the instant before he hits the ground? ______ m/sarrow_forwardYou are designing a ski jump ramp for the olympics. You need to calculate the vertical height (h) from the starting gate to the bottom of the ramp. The skiers push off hard with their ski poles at the start, just above the starting gate, so they typically have a speed of 2.0 m/s as they reach the gate. For safety, the skiers should have a speed of no more that 30.0 m/s when they reach the bottom of the ramp. You determine that for an 85.0 kg skier, friction and air resistance will do a total work magnitude 4000 j on him during his run down the slope. What is the maximum height (h) for which the maximum speed will not be exceeded?arrow_forward
