A typical human consumes 2500 Kcal of energy during a day. This is the equivalent to 10,450,000 J! Say you decided to run stairs

all day. Given that there are 86,400 seconds / day, how much energy, in Joules, would you burn in climbing stairs all day?

Answer:

2940.1 joules  would you burn in climbing stairs all day.

Explanation:

Work = W = F\times d

going up stairs  would be against force of gravity

W = mgh

where h is the  height

the question is not complete because we need speed or distance

h =  v \times t

so assuming 1 step per second

h = 86,400 steps  \times 7inchs/step \times 0.0254 m/inch

h = 15362 m

so from this    

W = 800 N \times 15362

   = 12289600 J  

that means YOU  need 12289600 J to walk 1 step per second all day

divide that by 4180 J /Kcal  

Kcal =  \frac{W}{(J/Kcal)}

       = \frac{12289600}{4180}

       = 2940.1 Kcal

if you ran faster you would use more energy  2 steps per second would mean 5880 Kcal.

Spiderman, whose mass is 70.0 kg, is dangling on the free end of a 12.2-m-long rope, the other end of which is fixed to a tree l
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

U = -3978.8 J

Explanation:

The work of the gravitational force U just depends of the heigth and is calculated as:

U = -mgh

Where m is the mass, g is the gravitational acceleration and h the alture.

for calculate the alture we will use the following equation:

h = L-Lcos(θ)

Where L is the large of the rope and θ is the angle.

Replacing data:

h = 12.2-12.2cos(58.4)

h = 5.8 m

Finally U is equal to:

U = -70(9.8)(5.8)

U = -3,978.8 J

How will the motion of the arrow change after it leaves the bow?
Pavel [41]

The string moves to the right, as it restores its original position with the median plane of the bow. As a result, the string "pulls" on the arrow with a force F2. 2. The tip of the arrow T moves slightly to the left.

pls thank me and brainliest me

The compound ethylene (C2H4) is represented by this diagram. What statement best describes the arrangement of the atoms in an et
Effectus [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is two electrons are shared between each hydrogen atom and the carbon atom bonded to it, and four electrons are shared between the carbon atoms.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Ethylene is a compound given by the chemical formula H_2C=CH_2.

The bond present between hydrogen and carbon atoms or carbon and carbon atoms are covalent bonds. A covalent bond is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms combining.

A double bond is present between carbon and carbon atoms. So 2 pairs of electrons are shared which means in total of 4 electrons are shared.

Bond present between hydrogen and carbon atoms are single bonds. So, a pair of electrons is shared which means that in total of 2 electrons are shared.

Hence, the correct answer is two electrons are shared between each hydrogen atom and the carbon atom bonded to it, and four electrons are shared between the carbon atoms.
