Humans need a digestive system to do cellular respiration, which produces energy used for growth and movement.
Plants do not need one as they make their own energy through photosynthesis. The process produces glucose, which is a form of energy for the plants.
Answer:
D potential energy at the top of the stairs, kinetic energy as she walks down
Explanation:
The potential energy of a body is the energy due to the position of the body.
At the top of the stair case, the student is at a significant height.
Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of the body.
As the student descends, the potential energy is changed to kinetic energy.
To find the potential energy;
P.E = mgH
m is the mass
g is the acceleration due to gravity
H is the height of the body
To find the kinetic energy;
K.E =
m v²
m is the mass
v is the velocity
Answer:
Power = 377.35 W or Power = 0.5065 hp
Explanation:
Given:
Number of steps, n = 1576
height of each step, h = 0.20 m
Total height achieved, H = nh = 1576 × 0.20 = 315.2 m
Mass of the runner, M = 70.0 kg
Total time taken, t = 9 minutes 33 seconds = (9 × 60) + 33 = 573 seconds
Now, the potential energy gained by the runner,
E = MgH
where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity
on substituting the values in the above formula, we get
E = 70 × 9.8 × 315.2
or
E = 216227.2 J
also,
Energy = Power × time
therefore,
Power = Energy/time
or
Power = 216227.2 J / 573
or
Power = 377.35 W
Now,
745 watt = 1 hp
or
1 watt = 1/745 hp
thus,
Power = 377.35 W = 337.35 × (1/745) hp
or
Power = 0.5065 hp
Answer: 1 : an observable fact or event. 2a : an object or aspect known through the senses rather than by thought or intuition. b : a fact or event of scientific interest susceptible of scientific description and explanation. More from Merriam-Webster on phenomenon.
D, the plant takes Solar/Light energy and converts it into chemical energy.
