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.

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1 solar masses

Explanation:

-Sirius has to maintain equilibrium with it's companion.

-Let x be the mass of Sirius and y be the mass of it's companion.

-From the question, we know that Sirius is 2.35 times heavier than it's companion:

\frac{x}{y}=2.35\\\\\frac{x}{y}=\frac{2.35}{1}

Hence, the mass of it's companion is 1 solar masses

Answer:

Explanation:

Trypophobia is a fear or disgust of closely-packed holes. People who have it feel queasy when looking at surfaces that have small holes gathered close together.A person may start by imagining what they fear, then looking at pictures of the fear object, and then finally being near or even touching the source of their anxiety. In the case of trypophobia, a person with symptoms may start by simply closing his eyes and imagining something such as a honeycomb or seed poThey can help you find the root of the fear and manage your symptoms.

A sinusoidal electromagnetic wave from a radio station passes perpendicularly through an open window that has area 0.500 m2 . At
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

31.8 × 10⁻⁴ J = 3.18 mJ

Explanation:

We know the intensity I of a wave is I = P/A where P = power and A = area = 0.500 m²

The intensity of an electromagnetic wave is also equal to I = E₀²/μ₀c

where E₀ = maximum electric field strength = √2E where E = rms value of electric field = 0.0200 N/C, μ₀ = 4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m ,c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

P/A = E₀²/μ₀c = 2E²/μ₀c

P = 2E²A/μ₀c = 2 × (0.02 N/C)² × 0.5 m²/(4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m × 3 × 10⁸ m/s)

  = 1.06 × 10⁻⁴ W = 0.106 mW

Since P = E/t where E = Energy and t = time

E = Pt with t = 30 s

E = 1.06 × 10⁻⁴ W × 30 s =  31.8 × 10⁻⁴ J = 3.18 mJ

So the wave carries 3.18 mJ of energy through the window in 30 s
