You could use an elevator or the stairs to lift a box to tenth floor.which has greater power?

Stairs don't have any power at all.  All the energy used to climb them
has to come from your muscles.

An elevator gets its power from the electric motors that lift it.  All YOU
have to do is stand there and look around.

All of this is a big part of the reason why elevators have become so
popular, and why no buildings with more than a few floors were built
before elevators were invented.

A car moving 12m east, then 20m west . What is the displacement?
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

8 m west

Explanation:

If we say east is the +x direction, and west is the -x direction, then the displacement is:

Δx = 12 m + (-20 m)

Δx = -8 m

A springboard diver intending to do a somersault brings her knees and arms closer to her body during the dive. What effect does
Hoochie [10]

During the diving when a diver jumps off from platform he brings her knees and arms closer to the body

This is because when diver is in air he don't have any torque about his center of mass which shows that angular momentum of his body will remain constant during his motion in air

Now we can say product of his moment of inertia and his angular speed will remain constant always

So here if we decrease the moment of inertia of the body during our motion then angular speed will increase so that product will remain constant

and this is what the diver use during his diving

so correct answer will be

<u><em>It decreases her moment of inertia.</em></u>

A mass weighting 48 lbs stretches a spring 6 inches. The mass is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance of 27 lbs when the
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

a)

u(t)=0.499ft.e^{-\frac{144.76lb/s}{2(48lb)}t}cos(\omega t)\\\\u(t)=0.499ft.e^{-1.5t}cos(\omega t)

b)

m = 48lb

c)

b = 144.76lb

Explanation:

The general equation of a damping oscillate motion is given by:

u(t)=u_oe^{-\frac{b}{2m}t}cos(\omega t-\alpha)    (1)

uo: initial position

m: mass of the block

b: damping coefficient

w: angular frequency

α: initial phase

a. With the information given in the statement you replace the values of the parameters in (1). But first, you calculate the constant b by using the information about the viscous resistance force:

|F_{vis}|=bv\\\\b=\frac{|F_{vis}|}{v}\\\\|F_{vis}|=27lbs=27*32.17ft.lb/s^2=868.59ft.lb/s^2\\\\b=\frac{868.59}{6}lb/s=144.76lb/s

Then, you obtain by replacing in (1):

6in = 0.499 ft

u(t)=0.499ft.e^{-\frac{144.76lb/s}{2(48lb)}t}cos(\omega t)\\\\u(t)=0.499ft.e^{-1.5t}cos(\omega t)

b.

mass, m = 48lb

c.

b = 144.76 lb/s
