Transcribed Image Text:Review I Constants
Sam, whose mass is 72 kg , straps on his skis and
starts down a 64 m -high, 20° frictionless slope. A
strong headwind exerts a horizontal force of 200 N
on him as he skies.
Use work and energy to find Sam's speed at
the bottom.
Express your answer to two significant
figures and include the appropriate units.

- At Schlitterbahn, a 75.0 kg person rides a 12.0 m high water slide. If dissipative forces do -6250 J on the rider as they go from rest at the top of the ride to the bottom, then what is the speed of the rider at the bottom of the slide? Include a diagram of the situation and indicate the mechanical energy at both the top and at the bottom of the slide.arrow_forwardYou are throwing a ball to a friend while taking physics and begin to wonder about work. You know that when you throw, you exert a force of 655 N on the ball (which has mass 1.84 kg), and that you do so for a distance of 0.27 m. If you start the throw from rest, what is the final speed of the ball? When you show your work for this question, you must do the calculations using work and energy for credit. If you use kinematics you will not recieve credit. Your Answer: units Answerarrow_forwardPlease use the information in the picture to answer the question: How fast must it have leapt from the water to reach a such a great height and speed. If you stand at the bow where you can reach up to a height of 3m above the water. You can only catch a fish if it is traveling under 8.5m/s when it reaches you. Will you be able to catch the fish? Find the speed of the fish at your location. Hint: use energy conservation.arrow_forward

Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.arrow_forward= 7.50 m.

- Suppose you are biking at a constant speed up a road inclined at 5° above the horizontal. You need to bike up this hill for 200 m in 2 minutes or less. There is an average drag force of 25 N as well. Calculate the minimum amount of power in hp your body must provide in order to make it up this hill in time. Assume 80 kg total mass of yourself and bike and 25% energy efficiency in your body. Define a system and draw energy state diagrams as part of your solution. Draw any necessary FBDs for forces.
