The height of stairs a 60 kg student would have to run in order to burn off 1 Calorie of food energy will be 7.1 meters.
<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>
The potential energy is due to the virtue of the position and the height. The unit for the potential energy is the joule.
Given data;
Mass of student,m = 60 kg
Energy,E = 4190 J
Height of stairs,h=?
The potential energy is mainly dependent upon the height of the object. The potential energy is found as;
Potential energy = mgh
E=mgh
h=E/mg
h= 4190 J / (60 kg× 9.81 m/s²)
h = 7.1 metre
Hence the height of the stairs will be 7.1 meters.

F=mass x acceleration = ma= 0.8*20 = 16N
Initial velocity = 25 m/s, angle 60°
sin (60°) = opposed leg / hypothenuse = Vertical velocity / Initial velocity
=> Vertical velocity = initial velocity * sin (60°) = 25 m / s * 0.866 = 21.65 m/s
Weather gets pushed around by winds created by low and high air pressure.
