21.-Una esquiadora olímpica que baja a 25m/s por una pendiente a 20o encuentra una región de nieve húmeda de coeficiente de fricción μr =0.55. ¿Cuánto desciende antes de detenerse?

y = 12.82 m

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using the energy work theorem

          W = ΔEm

friction force work is

          W = fr . s = fr s cos θ

the friction force opposes the movement, therefore the angle is 180º

           W = - fr s

we write Newton's second law, where we use a reference frame with one axis parallel to the plane and the other perpendicular

           N -Wy = 0

           N = mg cos θ

the friction force remains

            fr = μ N

            fr = μ mg cos θ

work gives

           W = - μ mg s cos θ

initial energy

           Em₀ = ½ m v²

the final energy is zero, because it stops

we substitute

          - μ m g s cos θ = 0 - ½ m v²

          s = ½ v² / (μ g cos θ)

let's calculate

          s = ½ 20² / (0.55 9.8 cos 20)

          s = 39.49 m

this is the distance it travels along the plane, to find the vertical distance let's use trigonometry

            sin 20 = y / s

           y = s sin 20

           y = 37.49 sin 20

           y = 12.82 m

absorption lines are where light has been absorbed by the atom thus you see a dip in the spectrum whereas.

emission spectra have spikes in the spectra due to atoms releasing photons at those wavelengths.
