Physics 2 – Jan 17, 2019 • P3 Challenge– • What conditions must be met to apply conservation of energy for a system? • Then work together to finish the last problem we had on Tuesday • Today’s Objective: Conservation of Energy Get out Cons of E p1-2 for HMK Check Show me Work – KE WS if not yet
When there is friction…. • Ex: A 62.9-kg downhill skier is moving with a speed of 12.9 m/s as he starts his descent from a level plateau at 123-m height to the ground below. The slope has an angle of 14.1 degrees and a coefficient of friction of 0.121. The skier coasts the entire descent without using his poles; upon reaching the bottom he continues to coast to a stop; the coefficient of friction along the level surface is 0.623. How far will he coast along the level area at the bottom of the slope? (Use energy methods)
