Kinetic energy= 1/2mv^2
=1/2*130*6^2
=2340J

An 75-kg hiker climbs to the summit of Mount Mitchell in western North Carolina. During one 2.0-h period, the climber's vertical

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

The change in gravitational potential energy of the climber-Earth system is $\Delta PE = 396900 \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the hiker is $m = 75 \ kg$

The time taken is $T = 2 \ hr = 2 * 3600 = 7200 \ s$

The vertical elevation after time T is $H = 540 \ m$

The change in gravitational potential is mathematically represented as

$\Delta PE = mgH$

here g is the acceleration due to gravity with value $g = 9.8 \ m/s^2$

substituting values

$\Delta PE = 75 * 9.8 * 540$

$\Delta PE = 396900 \ J$

Neil Armstrong, the first human being to step on the moon, left a foot print that is essentially unchanged nearly 50 years later

Likurg_2 [28]

Since the boot-print was left there nearly 50 years ago, there has been very little wind and very little rain in that area, and plus, there have been very few people or other animals walking around in that spot to disturb it.
