Hello!

Work is equal to negative change in PE and PE=mgh and Power is change in work/change in time

So we have 

56.1kg * 9.80m/s^2 * 16m = 8796.5 J of PE at top of run and -8796.5J of work done also

if it takes him 12s then we need to find the time gravity alone would bring him to the bottom. we get

16m=1/2at^2 and solving for t we get 
t=sqrt(32/9.80m/s^2)=1.81s

so the difference in time is 12-1.8=11.2s

now we can find avg power=work/time = 8796.5J/11.2s = 785W or 785J/s

Hope this helps! Any questions please ask! Thank you!

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

AB = 110 miles

Let the distance of the western station from fire is d.

As according to the diagram, use Sine law

\frac{d}{Sin 15}=\frac{110}{Sin 133}

d = 110 x 0.2588 / 0.73

d = 39 miles

b.The hiker got tired and walked the slowest from 1:00-2:00.---> no, because this was not the slowest stage


c.The hiker stopped for lunch from 11:00-12:00 and that slowed him down.---> no because this was the fastest stage

A microwave oven operates at 2.00 ghz . what is the wavelength of the radiation produced by this appliance? express the waveleng
yan [13]
<span>Since frequency and wavelength have inverse relationship. It can be expressed by the equation: ν.λ = c Where, v = frequency of the electromagnetic wave. λ = it's wavelength c = the speed of light in a vacuum. v = 2.00 Ghz x 10^9 Hz / 1 Ghz = 2.00 x 10^9 Hz that means that in one second it covers 2.00 x 10^9 cycles. λ = 3.10^8 m/s / 2.00 x 10^9 /s = 1.25E-10 nanometers</span>
