A skier starts from rest at the top of a hill that is inclined at 9.8° with respect to the horizontal. The hillside is 240 m long, and the coefficient of friction between snow and skis is 0.0750. At the bottom of the hill, the snow is level and the coefficient of friction is unchanged. How far does the skier glide along the horizontal portion of the snow before coming to rest? m
L = Length of the hillside = 240 m
m = mass of the skier
= Coefficient of friction = 0.0750
Fnhill = Normal force acting on the hill = mg Cos
fhill = frictional force acting on the hill = Fnhill = mg Cos
Fn = Normal force acting on the horizontal surface = mg
f = frictional force on horizontal surface = Fn = mg
d = distance traveled on horizontal surface
Using conservation of energy
Gravitational potential energy at the top = work done kinetic friction on hill + work done on horizontal surface
mgL Sin = fhill L + f d
mgL Sin = mg Cos L + mg d
gL Sin = g Cos L + g d
L Sin = Cos L + d
(240) Sin9.8 = (0.0750) Cos9.8 (240) + (0.0750) d

A skier starts from rest at the top of a hill that is inclined at 10.0° with respect to the horizontal. The hillside is 250 m long, and the coefficient of friction between snow and skis is 0.0750. At the bottom of the hill, the snow is level and the coefficient of friction is unchanged. How far does the skier glide along the horizontal portion of the snow before coming to rest?
A skier starts from rest at the top of a hill that is inclined at 9.5° with the horizontal. The hillside is 155 m long, and the coefficient of friction between snowand skis is 0.0750. At the bottom of the hill, the snow is level and the coefficient of friction is unchanged. How far does the skier glide along the horizontalportion of the snow before coming to rest?____ m
A skier with mass 64.0 kg starts at rest at the top of an 842 m long ski slope, which makes an angle 13.0 ∘ with the horizontal. A typical coefficient of friction between skis and snow is 5.20×10−2. skiers don't go straight down the hill- they zigzag back and forth. Even though they still end up at the bottom of the hill, they've lost more energy to friction because friction is a non-conservative force. Let's say due to zigzagging,...
A skier on a slope inclined at 4.7° to the horizontal pushes on ski poles and starts down the slope. The initial speed is 2.7 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between skis and snow is 0.11. Determine how far the skier will slide before coming to res
An 90 kg skier starts from rest at the top of a ski run. She quickly finds herself going fast down the icy (essentially frictionless) hill. At the base of the hill she is unable to stop. She skis across an icy deck, through the open doors of the ski lodge; across the concrete floor of the rental shop before coming to rest against the back wall of the shop. The height of the hill is 150m, the deck and...
In the figure, a T-bar ski tow pulls a skier up a hill inclined at 10.º above horizontal. The skier starts from rest and is pulled by a cable that exerts a tension T at an angle of 30.º above the surface of the hill. The mass of the skier is 60. ke and the effective coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the snow is 0.10. 30 (a) Draw the free-body diagram for the skier. (4 pts) 400...
H 11. A skier of mass 82 kg starts a downhill run from the top of a straight hill. The hill has a rough surface and has a length of 112 m. The top of the hill is 37.5 m above the lowest point. The speed of the skier at the top of the hill is - 183 and coefficient of kinetic friction between the skier's skis and the hill is 0.12. How fast is the skier moving at the...
an 8kb block starts from rest from the top of a plane, inclined at 40 degrees with respect to the horizontal, and slides down at a constant acceleration. if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is 0.35, determine how far the block will travel in 3 seconds.
63. SA skier starts at rest at the top of a large hemispherical hill (Fig. P7.63). Neglecting friction, show that the skier will leave the hill and become airborne at a distance h = R/3 below the top of the hill. Hint: At this point, the normal force goes to zero. Figure P7.63
A skier of mass m started at rest and slides down over a frictionless inclined plane. He reached the bottom at a speed of 20 m/s. Then reached the second inclined plan. If the second inclined plane has a friction coefficient of 0.2 and inclined at angle of 20°. How far does he slide on it before coming momentarily to rest? hi =? 20°
