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.

Identify the type of electrification of the road
Arte-miy333 [17]
Electrification is widely considered as a viable strategy for reducing the oil dependency and environmental impacts of road transportation. In pursuit of this strategy, most attention has been paid to electric cars. However, substantial, yet untapped, potentials could be realized in urban areas through the large-scale introduction of electric two-wheelers.

A projectile is fired with an initial velocity of 450 feet per second at an angle of 70° with the horizontal.
pav-90 [236]
<h2>After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

Initial velocity = 450 ft/s = 137.16 m/s

Angle, θ = 70°

Consider the vertical motion of projectile,

When the projectile return to the ground we have

           Displacement, s = 0 m

           Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

            Initial velocity, u = 137.16 x sin70 = 128.89 m/s

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5 at²

                s = ut + 0.5 at²

                0 = 128.89 x t + 0.5 x (-9.81) x t²

                t² - 26.28 t = 0

                t ( t- 26.28) = 0

               t = 0 s or t = 26.28 s

After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.
