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.

In the photo, a locomotive has broken through the wall of a train station. During the collision, what can be said about the forc
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Whether the force exerted by the locomotive on the wall was larger

Than the force the locomotive could exert on the wall.

Explanation:

The Newton's third law of motion States that every force have it's equal and opposite reaction force, whose magnitude is the same as the applied force. Therefore the magnitude of these opposite forces will be equal.

So we have;

F12=-F21

F12 is the force in a direction

-F21 is the force in the opposite direction.

Therefore we see that the magnitude of the force the locomotive exerts on the wall is equal to the one the wall exerts on the locomotive. Both magnitudes are equal but in opposite directions.
