In the Biomedical and Physical Sciences building at MSU there are 135 steps from the ground floor to the sixth floor. Each step

is 16.6 cm tall. It takes 5 minutes and 30 seconds for a person with a mass of 73.5 kg to walk all the way up. How much work did the person do?

Answer:

W = 16.4 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

There are 135 steps from the ground floor to the sixth floor.

Each step is 16.6 cm tall.

The mass of a person, m = 73.5 kg

We need to find the work done by the person. We know that,

Work done = Fd

Where

d is the displacement, d = 135 × 0.166 = 22.41

So,

W = 73.5 × 10 × 22.41

= 16471.35  J

or

W = 16.4 kJ

So, 16.4 kJ is the work done by the person.

Describe how the coriolis effect acts differently based on location on earth
sammy [17]

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect happens when an entity is perceived from a moving reference frame going in a straight path. The changing reference frame makes the object appear as if it were moving along a curved road.

Circulation is counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere. Circulation is clockwise in the southern hemisphere, and it is the equator, it is straight down without circulation.

A device for acclimating military pilots to the high accelerations they must experience consists of a horizontal beam that rotat
Natali [406]

centripetal acceleration is given by formula

a_c = \omega^2*R

given that

a_c = 34.1 m/s^2

R  =  5.91 m

now we have

\omega^2 R = 34.1

\omega^2 * 5.91 = 34.1

\omega^2 = 5.77

\omega = 2.4 rad/s

so the ratationa frequency is given by

\omega = 2 \pi f

2.4 = 2 \pi f

f = \frac{2.4}{2\pi}

f = 0.38 Hz
