A boy on a chairlift moving parallel to the mountain slope at a speed of +15 m/s watches a skier going straight down the mountain with a speed of -35 m/s. What is the velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift? A. -50 m/s B. -35 m/s C. -20 m/s D. +15 m/s E. +50 m/s

A. -50 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Velocity of Chairlift = +15m/s

Velocity of Skier = -35m/s

Required

Determine the velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift

Basically, relative velocity is the difference between the two velocities;

Having said that;

Relative velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift = Velocity of the Skier - Velocity of the Chairlift

Relative velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift = -35m/s - (+15m/s)

Open bracket

Relative velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift = -35m/s - 15m/s

Relative velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift = -50

answer: the rock sample is a sedimentary rock.

explanation:

it is given that:

mass of rock sample, m = 2.7 g

volume of rock sample,

so, density of rock sample will be

since, the density of rock sample is . hence, the rock sample is a sedimentary rock, whose densities varies between .

gas and liquid
