Answer:

14.4kJ

Explanation:

Work = Force x distance

W × h = mgh

Given that,

mass m, = 59.5kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

height ,h = 16.2cm

convert to m is 0.162m

How much work = m x g x h

height is 0.162 x 152 steps

h = 24.624m

work = 59.5 x 9.8 x 24.624

= 14,358.25Joule

= 14.4kJ

An object increases its velocity from 22 m/s to 36 m/s in 5.0 s. What is the average velocity of the object?
Luden [163]

Answer:

a=2.8\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of an object, u = 22 m/s

Final velocity of an object, v = 36 m/s

Time, t = 5 s

It can be assumed to find the average acceleration of the object instead of average velocity.

The change in velocity per unit time is equal to average acceleration of an object. It can be given by :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{36\ m/s-22\ m/s}{5}\\\\\a=\dfrac{14}{5}\ m/s^2\\\\a=2.8\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the object is 2.8\ m/s^2.

What are the differences and relationships between speed, velocity, and acceleration
melamori03 [73]

Velocity is the rate of change of position with respect to time, whereas acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Both are vector quantities (and so also have a specified direction), but the units of velocity are meters per second while the units of acceleration are meters per second squared.

A force of 100 N acts upward. Resolve this force into 2 components; one that acts 30º north of west and one that acts 60º north
GrogVix [38]

To resolve these forces we have to make use of the sines and cosines.

To resolve this force in 30 degree north of west, the answer will be

100*sin(30)

The answer will be 50N

Now to resolve the force acting 60 degree north of east

100* cos(60)

The answer will be 50N.

This also adds to the total force acting that is 50+50=100N. This is the way forces are resolved according to their specified angles.
