Skier bash their poles together before a race, so that they get the snow out of their baskets in the pole. Also bashing your poles together can get the skier "pumped up". It a way to get the adrenaline pumping through you body.

Ski racers use bent poles because they curve around the racers body more easily than straight poles.

Skiers are pulled up hill by a moving ski slope when they reach the top of the hill they ski down what type of energy do the skier gain as they go up hill?

Once the skiers go uphill by a cable car or lift, they gain potential energy. This potential energy is converted into kinetic energy once the skiers start to ski down the slope.


How do skiers overcome the force of gravity to have another go?

Skiers use a combination of techniques such as momentum, balance, and body positioning to navigate the ski slope and ride up the lift to have another go down the mountain. By leveraging these elements effectively, skiers can counteract the force of gravity and enjoy multiple runs in a skiing session.


How can a ski slope skiers and ski lift be compared to an electrical circuit?

U should all know that answer IT IS EASY! But since you asked, I'll tell you anyway (indeed, this site is full of easy quesitons, easily answered). In an electric circuit, electricity has to flow in two directions. It flows outward from the generator in the hot wire, and simultaneously back to the generator through the ground. With a ski life, the skiers go up the lift and then ski down the slope; you can't have them going in only one direction. They only go up so that they can ski down, and they can't ski down unless they first go up.

Is the force of a ski lift a push a pull or a pull of gravity?

The force of a ski lift is a pull created by the lift system itself. The lift pulls the skiers up the mountain using a combination of motors, pulleys, and cables. The force of gravity also plays a role in keeping the skiers on the chairlift as they are lifted up the slope.


What color ski wax should you use in downhill ski racing?

You use ski wax in downhill ski racing right before a ski race. Ski wax can become expensive and it wears off quickly so it is really just used for race day. Plus, you end up scraping a bunch of it off before you even ski on it! Ski wax comes in different colors based on temperature. Swix ski wax is a well respected brand. The ski wax comes in small bars that looks like different colored soap. The color of the wax you use depends on the air temperature, snow consistency, and other weather conditions. Each ski wax brand should have a chart which you tell you which ski wax to use and when. It is important that you watch the weather to see what the temperature is going to be the day of the ski race. The ski wax bars come in temperature ranges. Sometimes you can mix different colors if the temperature is right on the border between two different temperature ranges. Or in some cases it may be colder in the morning and warmer in the afternoon. As far as colors go...here is what they recommend for Swix wax: HF4 Green, -10
