PEg = Mass x Height x Gravity. So it doesn't matter how much PEg she started with, since you're finding how much it changed when she walked down 2.5 meters of stairs. So by plugging into the equation, you'll find how much potential energy was lost by walking down. (I'll leave it up to you since idk if you use 10 or 9.8 as gravity)

To find gravitational potential energy you need to multiply weight * height. The weight in this situation would be 380-N. Our height is 2.5 m. 380 *2.5= 950, or 950 J of gravitational potential energy.

Use the table below to calculate the acceleration of the object. Time (s) 0.0 3.0 6.0 9.0 Velocity (m/s) 0.0 1.2 2.4 3.6
antiseptic1488 [7]

explanation

a=average velocity/average time

average velocity=0.0+1.2+2.4+3.6/4

average velocity=7.2/4

average velocity=1.8 m/s

average time=0.0+3.0+6.0+9.0/4

average time=18/4

average time=4.5 s

a= average velocity/average time

a=1.8/4.5

a=0.4 m/s²

If an object on a spring became four times as massive, how would that affect the period of its oscillation on the spring?
pentagon [3]
The formula for the time period oscillation of a spring is:
T = 2π√(m/k) where m is the mass of the object attached to the spring and k is the spring constant of the spring.

Multiplying m by 4 we have:
2π√(4m/k)
= 2π x 2√(m/k)
or 2 x (2π√(m/k)) or 2T.

Therefore, when object is four times as massive, then period will double.
