A62 kg skier is moving at 6.5 m/s on frictionless horizontal snow-covered plateau when she encounters a rough patch 3.50 m long. the coefficient of kinetic friction between this patch and her skis is 0.30. after crossing the rough patch and returning to friction free snow, she skis down an icy frictionless hell 2.5 m high. a) how much work is done by friction in crossing the patch? b) how fast is the skier moving when she gets the bottom of the hill? [hint: b) use the conservation of total

(A). The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B). The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of skier = 62 kg

Speed = 6.5 m/s

Length = 3.50 m

Coefficient kinetic friction = 0.30

Height = 2.5 m

(A) we need to calculate the work done by friction in crossing the patch

Using formula of work done

Put the value into the formula

The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B) we need to calculate the speed of skier

Using conservation of energy

Final potential energy is zero

So,

Put the value into the formula

The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

Hence,  (A).The work done by friction in crossing the patch is -637.98 J.

(B).The speed of skier is 10.57 m/s.

hail is a solid form of precipitation composed of large, layered ice particles called pellets that often have spherical shapes. this phenomenon occurs during thunderstorms in the could type known as cumulus

hope this you out ^w^

i cant see the choices man
