1) Trying to escape his pursuers, a secret agent skis off a slope inclined at 30° below the horizontal at 60 km/h. To survive and land on the snow 100m below, he must clear a gorge 60 m wide. Does he make it? Ignore air resistance.   high and has speed of 12.0 km/h. (a) If the robot launches itself at an angle of 60° at this speed, what is its maximum height? (b)What would the launch angle have to be to reach a height of 46 cm?

Secret agent Samantha Bond, 48.50 kg, has just ignited her jet powered skis at the foot of a 10.0 degree slope that rises in height by 50.0 m. The skis have a thrust of 244.0 N. When she gets to the top of the slope, she keeps the skis at 10.0 degrees as she flies through the air. At what horizontal distance from the top of the slope, from where she took off, will she land? This will be 50.0...

Jason takes off from rest across level water on his jet-powered skis. The combined mass of Jason and his skis is 75 kg(the mass of the fuel is negligible). The skis have a thrust of 200N and a coefficient of kinetic friction on water of 0.10. Unfortunately, the skis run out of fuel after only 48s. What is Jason's top speed? A) 81 m/s B) 48 m/s C) 130 m/s D) 13 m/s
A civil engineer used a 30-m tape in measuring an inclined distance. The measured length on the slope was recorded to be 459.20 m long.
A civil engineer used a 30-m tape in measuring an inclined distance. The measured length on the slope was recorded to be 459.20 m long. The difference in elevationbetween the initial and the end point was found to be 1.25 m. The 30-m tape is of standard length at a temperature of 10ºC and a pull of 5 kg. During measurement thetemperature reading was 15ºC and the tape was supported at both ends with an applied pull of 7.5 kg....
