The height of stairs a 60 kg student would have to run in order to burn off 1 Calorie of food energy will be 7.1 meters.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

The potential energy is due to the virtue of the position and the height. The unit for the potential energy is the joule.

Given data;

Mass of student,m = 60 kg

Energy,E = 4190 J

Height of stairs,h=?

The potential energy is mainly dependent upon the height of the object. The potential energy is found as;

Potential energy = mgh

E=mgh

h=E/mg

h= 4190 J / (60 kg× 9.81  m/s²)

h = 7.1 metre

Hence the height of the stairs will be 7.1 meters.

To learn more about the potential energy, refer to the link;

rosijanka [135]
A pulsar, or a pulsing star, is a highly magnetized neutron star that emits a beam of electromagnetic radiation. So they blink when they are rotating because the beam of radiation they emit can only be seen when it is facing the Earth.
