Suppose two skiers (A and B) are racing. Assume a frictionless surface! They start from the top of a mountain at the same time, and glide down to the flat area below. Just before the finish line there is a ditch. The skiers can either go down into the ditch or take a flat bridge over the ditch. Both the bridge and the ditch are covered with frictionless snow. Skier A decides to go down into the ditch. Skier B decides to go over the bridge. . Which skier gets to the finish line first, or do they arrive at the same time?
a. Skier A (ditch) arrives first
b. Skier B (bridge) arrives first
c. The skiers arrive at the same time
d. Neither skier arrives at the finish line

An insulated 40 ft^3 rigid tank contains air at 50 psia and 120°f. a valve connected to the tank is now opened, and air is allowed to escape until the pressure inside drops to 25 psia. the air temperature during this process is kept constant by an electric resistance heater placed in the tank. determine the electrical work done during this process.

In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 3.0-m-tall, 5.0-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their backs against the wall. the cylinder begins to rotate about a vertical axis. then the floor on which the passengers are standing suddenly drops away! if all goes well, the passengers will “stick” to the wall and not slide. clothing has a static coefficient of friction against steel in the range 0.60 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient in the range 0.40 to 0.70. part a what is the minimum rotational frequency, in rpm, for which the ride is safe? express your answer using two significant figures. f f = rpm
