Answer:

Work done, W = 2675.4 J

Given:

mass, m = 70.0 kg

height, H = 3.90 m

Solution:

According to the question, as the person jumps the stairs up, there is an increase in the potential energy of the person which is provided by the work done in climbing the stairs and is given by:

Work done, W = mgH

where

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^{2}[tex][tex]W = 70.0\times 9.8\times 3.90 = 2675.4 J

If an object is rolling without slipping, how does its linear speed compare to its rotational speed? If an object is rolling wit
salantis [7]

Answer:

v = r\omega

Explanation:

If the object is rolling without slipping, every unit of rotated angle equals to a distance perimeter rotated.

Suppose the object complete 1 revolution within time t. The angular distance is 2π rad. Its angular velocity is 2π/t

The distance it covered is its circumference, which is 2πr, and so the speed is 2πr/t

So the linear speed compared to angular speed is

\frac{v}{\omega} = \frac{2\pi r/t}{2\pi /t} = r

v = r\omega
