As you ski down a black diamond run, you accelerate at 6m/s^2. How fast will you moving after 3 seconds?
Aaron G asked:
As you ski down a black diamond run, you accelerate at 6m/s^2. Assuming you start from a complete stop, how fast will you moving after 3 seconds?

Who created the ski trail rating system originally, and what is the significance of the colors used?
bgl asked:
I am curious where the green, blue, and black color choices came from.
The green and black colors seem like obvious choices. Blue seems a little arbitrary for a color choice.

Would you be able to ski faster on snow made out of dry ice?
John-kuma asked:
If it was possible to make snow out of dry ice and ski on it, will it be more slippery and thus faster?

How long is the ski trail?
Ryan asked:
Starting from rest, a 75 kg skier slides down a 17.0 º slope. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and snow is
0.120 and it takes 28.2 s to get to the bottom, how long is the ski trail?

Do Olympic ski jumpers hit terminal velocity in their jumps? Could they jump from an airplane and land?
straightshooter asked:
If Olympic ski jumpers hit terminal velocity in their jump, then wouldn’t it open up the possibility that an olypic ski jumper, and an expert sky diver, could jump from an airplane and land on a slope without the aid of a parachute?

A Skier travels 36ft down a ski run during the 4th sec?
yanidit D asked:
A Skier travels 36ft down a ski run during the 4th sec of his run and 48ft during the 6th sec. What distance during the 8 seconds of his down hill run. Assume that the acceleration is uniform throughout.

What forces are involved in snowboarding and skiing?
Cassie H asked:
I know there is gravity, but can you name others, if they are helpful to the sport and why? Thank you so much for your help

The 1994 Winter Olympics included the aerials competition in skiing. In this event skiers speed down a ramp?
ash asked:
that slopes sharply upward at the end. The sharp upward slope launches them into the air, where they perform acrobatic maneuvers. In the women’s competition, the end of a typical launch ramp is directed 59° above the horizontal. With this launch angle, a skier attains a height of 10 m above the end of the ramp. What is the skier’s launch speed?
