<span>Alice and Tom will reach the surface of the lake at the same time. In this problem. Both Alice and Tom have 2 components to their velocities. A horizontal component and an increasing vertical component due to gravity. They start out with different horizontal components, but that component does not in any way contribute to their vertical velocities. Since they both started out at the same height and the same vertical velocities, they will reach the surface of the lake at the same time.</span>

75kg man climbs a mountain 1000m high in 3hrs and uses 4100 joulse/min. (a) calculate the power consumption in watt, (b) what is
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Power consumption is 4100 J/min / 60 s/min = 68.3 W(atts)

work done raised the potential energy

b) 75(9.8)(1000) / (3(3600)) = 68.055555... 68.1 W

c) efficiency is 68.1 / 68.3 = 0.99593... or nearly 100%

Not a very likely scenario.

whats an isotope? give the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in a neutral atom of each of the following isotopes, Carbo
melamori03 [73]
Isotopes refer to different atoms of the same element (i.e. same number of protons) that differ in the number of neutrons they have (giving them different atomic weights). Atomic weight is the sum of protons and neutrons (each contributes 1 atomic mass unit).

Carbon has 6 protons by definition. If you have a carbon-13 atom (the 13 referring to its mass), the atom has 13 - 6 = 7 neutrons. Since it's neutral, protons = electrons, so there are also 6 electrons.

Sulfur has 16 protons by definition. If you have a sulfur-32 atom, the atom has 32 - 16 = 16 neutrons. Since it's neutral, protons = electrons, so there are also 16 electrons.

What does every magnet possess?
snow_lady [41]

All magnets possess a property called polarity--that is, a magnet's power of attraction is strongest at its opposite ends, usually called the north and south poles. The north and south poles attract each other, but north repels north and south repels south. All magnets attract iron.
