Her potential energy at the top of the slope = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

Her kinetic energy at the bottom of the slope = (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)² .

The only possible way to handle this problem without making it
grossly complicated is to assume that the slope is frictionless.
Then ALL of the potential energy she had at the top shows up
as kinetic energy at the bottom, so we can write:

(1/2) x (mass) x (speed)² = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

Divide each side
by (mass) :     (1/2) x (speed)² = (gravity) x (height)

Isn't that interesting !
The speed at the bottom only depends on the height of the hill
and what planet she's skiing on. Her mass/weight doesn't matter.
A beanpole and a tons-o'-fun will both have the same speed when
they reach the bottom !

   (1/2) x (speed)² = (gravity) x (height)

Multiply each side
by 2 :    speed² = (2) x (gravity) x (height)

Square root
each side:       Speed = √ (2 g h)

   = √ (19.6 h)

   = about 4.43 x √(height of the hill, meters)

Answer from: Quest

hello, i am papaguy.

i have found an answer to your question but use it as information.

information: because weak acids/bases have low concentration of hydrogen ions, the addition of water has a large impact on the ph. 2. a difference in 1 unit is a 10x difference in concentration for example; a liquid with ph of 3 is 10x more acidic than a liquid with a ph of 4. therefore, a liquid with a ph of 3 is stronger.

best of luck!

Answer from: Quest

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water

Air enters a compressor operating at steady state at 1.05 bar, 300 k, with a volumetric flow rate of 93 m3/min and exits at 12 bar, 400 k. heat transfer occurs at a rate of 15.5 kw from the compressor to its surroundings. assuming the ideal gas model for air neglecting kinetic potential energy effects, determine the power in put in kw.

Consider two less-than-desirable options. in the first you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into an identical car also going 30 mph. in the second option you are driving 30 mph and crash head-on into a stationary brick wall. in neither case does your car bounce off the thing it hits, and the collision time is the same in both cases. which of these two situations would result in the greatest impact force?
