Answer:

P = 14700 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a piano, m = 75 kg

It is delivered throughout the window of a 6th story apartment which is 20 m above the ground.

We need to find the potential energy of the piano. It is given by :

P = mgh

Putting all the values,

P = 75 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 20 m

P = 14700 J

So, the potential energy of the piano is 14700 J.

Darina [25.2K]

Answer: P = 36.75W

The additional power needed to account for the loss is 36.75W.

Explanation:

Given;

Mass of the runner m= 60 kg

Height of the centre of gravity h= 0.5m

Acceleration due to gravity g= 9.8m/s

The potential energy of the body for each step is;

P.E = mgh

P.E = 60 × 9.8 × 0.5

PE = 294J

Since the average loss per compression on the leg is 10%.

Energy loss = 10% (P.E)

E = 10% of 294J

E = 29.4J

To calculate the runner's additional power

given that time per stride is = 0.8s

Power P = Energy/time

P = E/t

P = 29.4J/0.8s

P = 36.75W
