A 75.0-kg person climbs stairs, gaining 2.50 m in height. Find the work done to accomplish this task.
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

W=1837.5J

Explanation:

A force exerts work when there is a displacement of its point of application in the direction of that force. Therefore, the work done by a system is defined as the inner product between the applied force and the displacement:

W=\vec{F}\cdot \vec{d}\\W=Fcos\theta d

In this case, we have:

F=mg\\h=dcos\theta

So, replacing this:

W=mgh\\W=75kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}*2.5m\\W=1837.5J

The second hand on a clock is 3.00 cm long. What is the speed of the outermost tip of that second hand
Gnom [1K]

In 60 minutes or 3600 seconds, the tip of the minute hand traverses the circumference of a circle with radius 3.00 cm, so it moves with a tangential speed of

(3.00 cm)/(3600 s) ≈ 0.00083 cm/s = 8.3 μm/s

The record time for a Tour de France cyclist to ascend the 1100-mm-high Alpe d'Huez is 37.5 minmin. The rider and his bike had a
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

1945.6 W

Explanation:

We are given that

Height,h=1100 m

Time,t=37.5 min=37.5\times 60=2250 s

1 min=60 s

Mass,m=65 kg

Power,P=700 W

We have to find the his total metabolic power.

Power,=P'=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{mgh}{t}=\frac{65\times 9.8\times 1100}{2250}=311.4 W

Where g=9.8m/s^2

Efficiency =25%

Therefore,Power,P'=\frac{311.4}{0.25}=1245.6 W

Total metabolic power=P+P'=700+1245.6=1945.6 W
