Answer:

Heavier person

Explanation:

Work = force × distance.  In this case, force = weight and distance = height of the stairs.  For both people, the height of the stairs is the same.  Since the heavier person has more weight, they did more work.

Mila [183]

Answer:

Correct Answer is positive force → balanced force → negative force

When Diego gives a big lift to the piano with the help of pulley system that time, initially piano moves upward so positive force acts on it.

Later, Piano stops, in this condition balanced force act on it since force applied by Diego is balanced by gravitational force of earth.

After some time piano starts falling in this condition negative force will act on the piano. In this condition, gravitational force will acts on piano in downward direction.

camcorder has a power rating of 14 watts. If the output voltage from its battery is 3 volts, what current does it use?
Aliun [14]
Power rating tells you the amount of electricity a particular device like a camcorder needs. The power, voltage and current are all related using the equation: P = IV.

Therefore, 

P = IV
I = P/V = 14 watts/3 volts = 4.67 A

Thus, the current must be 4.67 Amperes for the camcorder.
