The stair stepper is a novel exercise machine that attempts to reproduce the work done against gravity by walking up stairs. Wit

h each step, Brad (of mass 60 kg) simulates stepping up a vertical distance of 0.25 m with this machine. If Brad exercises for 20 min per day with a stair stepper at a frequency of 60 steps per minute, what total work he does he do each day? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 .

Answer:

The total work done by Brad each day is 176400 J

Explanation:

Hi there!  The work done by a force (F) pointed in the same direction as the displacement (d) is calculated as follows:

W = F · d

The force applied is equal to the weight of Brad, that is calculated as follows:

Weight = m · g

Where:

m =  mass of Brad

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²)

Then:

Weight = 60 kg · 9.8 m/s² = 588 N

 

Let´s find the vertical distance traveled by Brad each day:

He exercises 20 min per day. Each minute Brad does 60 steps. In total, Brad steps up (20 min · 60 steps/min) 1200 steps. If each step has a height of 0.25 m, the total distance traveled by Brad will be

(1200 steps · 0.25 m/step) 300 m.

Then, the total work done by Brad is

W = F · d

W =  588 N · 300 m

W = 176400 J

The total work done by Brad each day is 176400 J

Llana [10]

Answer: - 25.2 kgm/s

Explanation: The mass of the ball is 0.5kg, and the initial velocity = 10.6m/s.

The final velocity is in opposite direction of the initial hence final velocity (v) = - 19.9 m/s

Impulse = change in momentum = final momentum - initial momentum.

Final momentum = mass × final velocity

Final momentum = - 19.9 × 0.5

Final momentum = - 9.95 kgm/s

Initial momentum = mass × initial velocity

Initial momentum = 0.5 × 10.6 = 5.3kgm/s

Change in momentum = final momentum - initial momentum = - 19.9 - 5.3

Change in momentum = - 25.2 kgm/s

The negative sign implies that the change in momentum is the opposite direction relative to the first.

Capacitor C1 is initially charged to V1 and capacitor C2 is initially charged to V2. The capacitors are then connected to each o
o-na [289]

Answer:

<em>20.08 Volts</em>

Explanation:

<u>Parallel Connection of Capacitors</u>

The voltage across any two elements connected in parallel is the same. If the elements are capacitors, then each voltage is

\displaystyle V_1=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}

\displaystyle V_2=\frac{Q_2}{C_2}

They are both the same after connecting them, thus

\displaystyle \frac{Q_2}{C_2}=\frac{Q_1}{C_1}

Or, equivalently

\displaystyle Q_2=\frac{C_2Q_1}{C_1}

The total charge of both capacitors is

\displaystyle Q_t=Q_1\left(1+\frac{C_2}{C_1}\right)

We can compute the total charge by using the initial conditions where both capacitors were disconnected:

Q_t=V_{10}C_1+V_{20}C_2=25\cdot 24+13\cdot 11=743\ \mu C

Now we compute Q1 from the equation above

\displaystyle Q_1=\frac{Q_t}{\left(1+\frac{C_2}{C_1}\right)}=\frac{743}{\left(1+\frac{13}{24}\right)}=481.95\ \mu C

The final voltage of any of the capacitors is

\displaystyle V_1=V_2=\frac{481.95}{24}=20.08\ V

The two ends of a coiled wire are connected to the electrodes of a lightbulb.
barxatty [35]

Answer:

a

Explanation:

The bar magnet moves downward with respect to the wire loop, so that the number of magnetic field lines going through the loop decreases with time. This causes an emf to be induced in the loop, creating an electric current.

in other words, the magnets motion creates a current in the loop
