3. A ski jumper starts from the top of a frictionless track making a 60° angle with the ground. The starting point is 25.0-m above the ground, and the jumper is launched from the upturned end of the track 3.00-m above the ground at an angle of 60°.

a) What is her speed as she leaves the jump?

b) How far away from the track does the jumper land?

Expert Solution

Here we apply mechanical energy conservation and concept of kinematics and parabolic motion.

A ski jumper starts from rest from point A at the top of a hill that is a height h1 above point B at the bottom of the hill. The skier and skis have a combined mass of 80 kg. The skier slides down the hill and then up a ramp and is launched into the air at point C that is a height of 10m above the ground. The skier reaches point C traveling at 42m/s. (a) Is the...

In a fireworks display, a firecracker is launched at an angle from the top of a high tower of height h0 = 50.0 m. As a result of the firecracker’s design, its position coordinates are of the form x(t) = A + Bt 2 and y(t) = C + Dt 3 , where A, B, C, and D are constants. The acceleration of the firecracker 1.00 second after firing is = (4.00î + 3.00ĵ) m/s 2 . Taking the origin...

A skier with a mass of 75kg starts from rest at the top of a slope which is 110m tall and skis to the bottom. Hint: you must use conservation of energy to solve both parts of this problem. a. What is the skier’s speed at the bottom of the slope if there is no friction? b. If the speed of the skier at the bottom of the slope is actually 20m/s, how much work is done by friction?

A skier starts from rest at the top of a hill that is inclined at 10.8° with respect to the horizontal. The hillside is 245 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?
