Let’s say a small person with a mass of 50 kg walks up two flights of stairs. A heavy person with a mass of 105 kg walks up the

same stairs. Who did more work and why?
Please help me, I'm very confused

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.

A city planner is working on the redesign of a hilly portion of a city. An important consideration is how steep the roads can be
Artyom0805 [142]

Explanation:

It is known that relation between force and acceleration is as follows.

                      F = m \times a

I is given that, mass is 1090 kg and acceleration is 21 m/s. Therefore, we will calculate force as follows.

              F = m \times a      

                 = 1090 \times (\frac{21}{16})

                 = 1430.625 N

Also, it is known that

      sin(\theta) = \frac{\text{Force car can exert}}{\text{Force gravity pulls car}}

      sin(\theta) = \frac{1430.625 N}{(1090 \times 9.8) N}

        \theta = 7.70 degrees

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum steepness for the car to still be able to accelerate is 7.70 degrees.
