Maximum height h of his jump above the end of the ramp

Reference no: EM13672074

A 64 kg skier starts from rest at height H = 16m above the end of a ski-jump ramp (Fig. 8-39). As the skier leaves the ramp, his velocity makes an angle of θ = 32° with the horizontal. Neglect the effects of air resistance and suppose the ramp is frictionless. (a) What is the maximum height h of his jump above the end of the ramp? (b) If he increased his weight with putting on a 10 kg backpack, what would h be?

Disregard friction between the ice and the skates : A 65.0-kg person throws a 0.045 0-kgsnowball forward by a ground speed of 30.0 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 60.0 kg, catches the snowball. Both people are on skates. The first person is initially moving forward by a speed of 2.50 m/s, and the..

Which is sufficient to produce ionization : Electric breakdown (sparks) occur in air if the electric field reaches 3×106 N/C. At this field strength, free electrons present in the atmosphere are rapidly accelerated to such large speeds that upon impact with atoms they knock electrons off of th..
