A student with a mass of 65.5 kg runs up a flight of 18 stairs. Each of the steps has a height of 16.5 cm. The student was able

to reach the top of the stairs in 2.57 s while climbing it 1 stair at a time.
1. Determine the student’s body power

2. If the student changed the number of steps taken in each step (i.e. 2 at a time OR 3 at a time) but nothing else changed, would this change the power of the student? Explain.

3. A Big Mac meal from McDonalds has 4 853 440 J of energy (1160 calories!). Using your answer from number 1, determine how long it would take for you to convert all the energy in a Big Mac meal (if only running stairs at the same rate). Express your answer in minutes.

The power developed by the student is 756.9 J/s and remains the same if the student takes the same time to climb the stairs when climbing it in two's and three's.

<h3>What is power?</h3>

Power is the rate at work is done.

  • Power = work done/time
  • work done = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height

Work done = 65.5 × 10 × (18 × 0.165) = 1945.35 J

Power = 1945.35/2.57 = 756.9 J/s

If the student climbed the steps in two or three at a time, the power does not change if the time remains the same.

  • Time required = Energy/ power

The time required to convert the Big Mac meal from McDonalds = 4 853 440/756.9

Time required = 6412.26 seconds

Therefore, from the power developed by the student, it will take him 6412.26 seconds to convert all the energy in a Big Mac meal.

Neutral Atom: Na, Ca, I, O
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

An atom which had neither gained any extra electron nor had lost any of its own electron is a Neutral Atom.

If an atom loses or gains one or more electron it becomes charged ie it becomes ion.

eg

Na is neutral atom with no charge

Ca+2 is an atom which has lost two electrons to become positively charged ion

O-2 is an atom which has gained two electrons to become negatively charged ion

Pun zapato de golf tiene 10 tacos cada uno con un área de 0.01 pulgadas en contacto con el piso suponga que caminar hay un insta
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Las presión ejercida por los tacos sobre el suelo es 900 libras por pulgada cuadrada.

Explanation:

Según la Física, comprendemos que la presión es igual a la fuerza dividida por área. En este caso, el peso de la persona dividida por área total de los tacos de los zapatos de golf suponiendo una distribución uniforme de la fuerza. Es decir:

\sigma = \frac{W}{n\cdot A_{T}} (Eq. 1)

Donde:

\sigma - Presión, medida en libras por pulgada cuadrada.

W - Peso de la persona, medida en libras.

n - Cantidad de tacos en los zapatos, adimensional.

A_{T} - Área del taco, medida en pulgadas cuadradas.

Si conocemos que W = 180\,lb, n = 20 y A_{T} = 0.01\,in^{2}, la presión es:

\sigma = \frac{180\,lb}{(20)\cdot (0.01\,in^{2})}

\sigma = 900\,psi

Las presión ejercida por los tacos sobre el suelo es 900 libras por pulgada cuadrada.

If you were to apply a force of 15N to a medicine ball with a mass of 5kg, what would its acceleration be
yaroslaw [1]

Given that

Force (F) = 15 N ,

mass (m) = 5 Kg ,

acceleartion = ?

              We know that, From Newtons II law

                      F = m. a

                    15 = 5 × a

                     a = 15÷ 5

                       a = 3 m/s²

acceleration of the ball is 3 m/s²
