In the Biomedical and Physical Sciences building at MSU there are 135 steps from the ground floor to the sixth floor. Each step

is 16.6 cm tall. It takes 5 minutes and 30 seconds for a person with a mass of 73.5 kg to walk all the way up. How much work did the person do?
2.What was the average power performed by the person during the walk?

3.How many food Calories did the person burn during the walk? (Do not enter unit for this part.)

Answer:

W = 16.5 Kj

P = 49.9 Watt

E = 16471

Explanation:

m = 73.5kg

t = 5min 30sec = (5×60) + 30 = 330sec

each step = 16.6cm = 0.166m

h = 135×0.166 = 22.41 m

g = 10 m/s²

(i) W = F × s = W × h = mgh

W = 73.5×10×22.41 = 16471.35

W = 16.5 Kj

(ii) Power = workdone/time

P = 16471.35/330

P = 49.9 Watt

(iii) The energy burnt in this process = 16471

The diagram below shows a 5.00-kilogram block
bixtya [17]

The name and strength of the force holding the block up is 50 N upward - Normal force.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Mass of the block, m = 5 kg</em>

The weight of the block acting downwards due to gravity is calculated as follows;

W = mg

where;

  • <em>g is acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²</em>

W = 5 x 10

W = 50 N <em>(</em><em>downwards</em><em>)</em>

Since the block is at rest, an a force equal to the weight of the block must be acting upwards. This force is known as normal reaction.

Fₙ = 50 N <em>(</em><em>upwards</em><em>)</em>

Thus, the name and strength of the force holding the block up is 50 N upward - Normal force.
