An escalator carries you from one level to the next in an airport terminal. The upper level is 4.4m above the lower level, and t

he length of the escalator is 7.3m . Assume that your mass is 63kg .Part AHow much work does the up escalator do on you when you ride it from the lower level to the upper level?Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.W =___________.Part BHow much work does the down escalator do on you when you ride it from the upper level to the lower level?Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.W =___________.

Answer:

Part a)

W = 2716.5 J

Part B)

W = -2716.5 J

Explanation:

Part A)

While escalator is moving up work done to move the person upwards is given as

W = mgh

here we know that

m = 63 kg

h = 4.4 m

now we have

W = 63 \times 9.8 \times 4.4

W = 2716.5 J

Part B)

Work done while we move from up to down

So we have

W = - mgh

so we have

W = -2716.5 J

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

52.5°C

Explanation:

The final enthalpy is determined from energy balance where initial enthalpy and specific volume are obtained from A-12 for the given pressure and state

mh1 + W = mh2

h2 = h1 + W/m

h1 + Wα1/V1

242.9 kJ/kg + 2.35.0.11049kJ/ 0.35/60kg

=287.4 kJ/kg

From the final enthalpy and pressure the final temperature is obtained A-13 using interpolation

i.e T2 = T1 + T2 -T1/h2 -h1(h2 - h1)

= 50°C + 60 - 50/295.15 - 284.79

(287.4 - 284.79)°C

= 52.5°C

Blood plasma volume for adults is about 3.1 liters. It has a density of 1.020 gml. How many pounds of blood plasma are in your b
kari74 [83]

Answer:

mass is 6.97 pounds

Explanation:

given data

volume = 3.1 liters

density = 1.020 g/ml = 1.02 kg/l

to find out

How many pounds of blood plasma

solution

we know mass formula from density that is

density = mass / volume

so

mass = density × volume    ...............1

so put all value to get mass

mass = 1.02 × 3.1

mass = 3.162 kg

mass = 3.162  × 2.205 pounds

so mass is 6.97 pounds

What happens to gravity when someone jumps up?
Alla [95]

Answer:

The direct answer to the question as written is as follows: nothing happens to gravity when someone jumps up - gravity continues exerting a force on the body of that particular someone proportional to (mass of someone) x (mass of Earth) / (distance squared). What you might be asking, however, is what is the net force acting on the body of someone jumping up. At the moment of  someone jumping up there is an upward acceleration, i.e., an upward-directed force which counteracts the gravitational force - this is the net force ( a result of the jump force minus gravity). From that moment on, only gravity acts on the body. The someone moves upward gradually decelerating to the downward gravitational acceleration until they reaches the peak of the jump (zero velocity). Then, back to Earth.
