    Calculating Final Temp of Water in Styrofoam Cup

    Homework Statement A 54.0 g ice cube, initially at 0°C, is dropped into a Styrofoam cup containing 327 g of water, initially at 19.4°C. What is the final temperature of the water, if no heat is transferred to the Styrofoam or the surroundings? Homework Equations Q=mc(delta)T...

    Find the frictional force on the skis

    down is 9.8 (gravity,) down slope is 74 in mag. the slope from the X axis is 10 deg from it.the Y of the triangle i believe is (74 sin 10) and perpendicular to the slope i hav upward is 558 N

    Find the frictional force on the skis

    what is FBD? , the forces affecting the skier is air resistance, *frictional force, gravity, velocity

    Find the frictional force on the skis

    umm I am lost now... maybe i drew it wrong... the air resistance is the magnitude isn't it? iono.. start over?

    Find the frictional force on the skis

    it is sin, (lookin for the Y component of the slope) which i had (74 sin 10),

    Find the frictional force on the skis

    air resistance is opposite to the velocity, and friction force should be the same, gravitainal force opposes it but i don't think directly bc its is not parallel to the slope.

    Find the frictional force on the skis

    it would be the sum of normal force, and air resistance? so it should be 74 +558 ?

    Find the frictional force on the skis

    Homework Statement A skier of mass 57 kg skis down a 10° slope @ constant velocity. The force of air resist. has a magnitude of 74 N. Find the frictional force on the skis. Homework Equations F=ma F(fr) = (mu)(Fn) The Attempt at a Solution I found Fn= ma where is 558N so...

    thx i got number 3 down, the other resistance for number 2 is air...

    How Do You Solve These Newton's Law Problems?

    2) there is also gravity,not sure what to do with it though, 3) i did sin 41=28/T1 which gave me 42.6 , that isn't right bc its force is larger... :-/

    How Do You Solve These Newton's Law Problems?

    for Number 2, i used the F=ma formula, where, 99.5 (1.09) to get the Newtons of 108, which is wrong...for #3, i got T3 which is 28 N, but for T1 and T2, do i just used T3 as the vertical measurement to find T1 and T2 ?

    How Do You Solve These Newton's Law Problems?

    so your saying if i just find the X and Y for F they X and Y should be the same force equivalence to F1 and F2? , i tried for X where sin 33.1=X/65, and X would be 35.5, apparently the answer is incorrect. EDIT:******* sorry, you are right, i entered the answer in the wrong answer slot, haha.. thx
