Question

The skier starts from rest. The total distance travelled by the skier during the descent is 2800 m. The average resistive force on the skier is 220 N. Calculate the work done against the resistive force

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Force equal to resistive force will be applied for movement . So force applied

F = 220 N .

displacement = 2800 m

work done against resistive force

= force x displacement

= 220 x 2800 J

= 6.16 x 10⁵ J .
