2 Ski jumping A ski jumper of mass 70 kg is attempting to launch off the...
Ionsider the ski jump track shown in Figure 2 below. The radius of curvature of the track is r= 60 [m] and the ski jumper's mass is 65 [kg]. The ski jumper's angular displacement, 6 is defined from the horizontal as shown. The ski jumper goes along the ski jump track for 6 = 120° before launching at an angle B = 30° above the horizontal. r=60[m] 0 0=120° LAUNCH POINT ski jumper B -GROUND Figure 2: Ski jumper attempting...
Part (a) [8 marks] Assuming a stationary start from θ = 0°, show that, at launch (when θ = 120°): [4 marks] The velocity of the ski jumper is ≈93 [m/s]. [4 marks] The normal reaction acting on the ski jumper is ≈1657 [N]. Part (b) [2 marks] Calculate the height of the launch point above the ground. Part (c) [8 marks] From parts (a) and (b), determine: [4 marks] The horizontal distance (as measured from the launch point) travelled...
2. A crate is pushed horizontally at an angle of 20° across a rough surface as shown. The mass of the crate is 55 kg and the coefficient of kinetic friction M = 0.35. a) What applied force is required to keep the box moving at a constant acceleration of 3m/s2 ? b) What applied force is needed to keep the box moving at a constant speed, that is, no acceleration? (2 pts.) 3. A 60-kg skier starts from rest...
