A 70.0 kg person climbs stairs, gaining 3.90 meters in height. Find the work done (in J) to accomplish this task.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Work done, W = 2675.4 J

Given:

mass, m = 70.0 kg

height, H = 3.90 m

Solution:

According to the question, as the person jumps the stairs up, there is an increase in the potential energy of the person which is provided by the work done in climbing the stairs and is given by:

Work done, W = mgH

where

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^{2}[tex][tex]W = 70.0\times 9.8\times 3.90 = 2675.4 J

A projectile is launched at an angle above the
gtnhenbr [62]
The first rule of vectors is that the horizontal and vertical components are separate. Disregarding air resistance, the only thing we have to worry about is gravity.

The appropriate suvat to use for the vertical component is v = u +at
I will take a to be -9.81, you may have to change it to be 10 if your qualification likes g to be 10.

v = 30 + (-9.81x2)
v = 30 - 19.62
=10.38m/s

Therefore we know that after 2.0 s the vertical component will be 10.38ms^-1, ie 10m/s as the answers given are all to 2sf.

The horizontal component is completely separate to the vertical component and since there is no air resistance, it will remain constant throughout the projectiles trajectory. Therefore it will remain at 40ms^-1.

Combining this together we get:
(1) vx=40m/s and vy=10m/s

Radio waves of frequency 1.667 GHzGHz arrive at two telescopes that are connected by a computer to perform interferometry. One p
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Explanation:

The frequency of radio waves is 1.667 GHz

One portion of the same wave front travels 1.260 mm farther than the other before the two signals are combined.

There are two conditions for interference either constructive or destructive.

For constructive interference , the path difference is n times of wavelength and for destructive interference, the path difference is (n+1/2) times of wavelength

We can find wavelength in this case as follows :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{1.667\times 10^9}\\\\\lambda=0.1799\ m

If we divide path difference by wavelength,

\dfrac{\delta}{\lambda} =\dfrac{1.26}{0.1799}\\\\\dfrac{\delta}{\lambda} =7\\\\\delta =7\lambda

It means that the path difference is 7 times of the wavelength. it means the two waves combine constructively and the value of m for the path difference between the two signals is 7.
