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

never [62]

Answer:

N = 1364 N

Explanation:

given data

accelerate upward = 5.70 m/s²

mass = 88.0 kg

solution

normal force is in upward direction so, weight of the student in downward direction and acceleration is in upward direction so formula is express as

N - mg = ma        ...........................1

N = m × (g+a)

put here value

N = 88.0 × (9.8 + 5.70)

N = 1364 N

If you cannot exert enough force to loosen a bolt with a wrench, which of the following should you do?
stepan [7]

Answer:

2.) Use a wrench with a longer handle.

Explanation:

It is suggested to use a wrench with longer handle if you cannot exert enough force to loosen a bolt with a wrench.

In doing this work, the torque which is the force that can turn the screw is not enough;

      Torque  = force x distance

If we increase the distance or the length of the handle, we can generate more torque to overcome the force needed.

The charged particles in the beams that Thomson studied came from atoms. As these particles moved away from their original atoms
aalyn [17]

The question to the above information is;

What is the best use of an atomic model to explain the charge of the particles in Thomson's beams?

Answer;

An atom's smaller negative particles are at a distance from the central positive particles, so the negative particles are easier to remove.

Explanation;

-Atoms are comprised of a nucleus consisting of protons (red) and neutrons (blue). The number of orbiting electrons is the same as the number of protons and is termed the "atomic number" of the element.

J.J. Thomson discovered the electron. Atoms are neutral overall, therefore in Thomson’s ‘plum pudding model’:

  • atoms are spheres of positive charge
  • electrons are dotted around inside

The temperature of the cosmic background radiation is measured to be 2.7 k. What is the wavelength of the peak in the spectral d
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m

Explanation:

The peak wavelength of the spectral distribution can be found by using Wien's displacement law:

\lambda=\frac{b}{T}

where

b=2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K is Wien's displacement constant

T is the absolute temperature

For the cosmic background radiation, the temperature is

T = 2.7 K

So, the corresponding peak wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K}{2.7 K}=1.07\cdot 10^{-3} m
