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

Physics

erastova [34]3 years ago

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.

Assuming that the circuit is in the steady state, what is the total energy stored in the two capacitors? j
Neporo4naja [7]

<span>The total energy stored is the sum of the energy stored in the capacitors. If the capacitors  are series connected capacitors, then the charging current is the same for both capacitors. This means that each capacitor stores the same energy and the stored energy is two times the energy of any of the capacitors.</span>

A cylinder of mass 250 kg and radius 2.60 m is rotating at 4.00 rad/s on a frictionless.
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The angular momentum of a cylinder, when it is rotating with constant angular velocity is Lini =Iωi

. When two cylinders are added to the rotating cylinder, which are identical in their dimensions, the moment of inertia of the entire system increases (since mass increases). The final moment of inertia will be 3I

Since friction exist, all the cylinders start rotating with same angular velocity, the new angular velocity can be calculated using conservation of angular momentum

Thus, Iωi =3Iωf ⟹ωf =ωi/3 = 0.33ωi

An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.31 m and a spring constant of 220 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached
Kruka [31]
The solution you should use is Hooke's law: F=-kx

It should have the same signs because they repel due to the stretch of the spring. 

a. Since there is a constant energy within the spring, then Hooke's law will determine the possible algebraic signs. The solution should be 
<span>F = kx 
270 N/m x 0.38 m = 102.6 N 
</span>
b. Then use Coulomb's law; F=kq1q2/r^2 to find the charges produced in the force.
