A ski that is placed on snow will stick to the snow. However, when the ski is moved along the snow, the rubbing warms and partially melts the snow, reducing the coefficient of kinetic friction and promoting sliding. Waxing the ski makes it water repellent and reduces friction with the resulting layer of water. A magazine reports that a new type of plastic ski is especially water repellent and that, on a gentle 240 m slope in the Alps, a skier reduced his top-to-bottom time from 65.0 s with standard skis to 45.0 s with the new skis. Determine the magnitude of his average acceleration with (a) the standard skis and (b) the new skis. Assuming a 3.40° slope, compute the coefficient of kinetic friction for (c) the standard skis and (d) the new skis.

A3030 cmcm wrench is used to loosen a bolt with a force applied 0.30.3 mm from the bolt. it takes 6060 nn to loosen the bolt when the force is applied perpendicular to the wrench. how much force would it take if the force was applied at a 3030 degree angle from perpendicular? a 3030 cmcm wrench is used to loosen a bolt with a force applied 0.30.3 mm from the bolt. it takes 6060 nn to loosen the bolt when the force is applied perpendicular to the wrench. how much force would it take if the force was applied at a 3030 degree angle from perpendicular?
