What are two ways you can increase power by climbing the stairs?

Answer:

change the

  • time
  • distance
  • force.

Explanation:

P = W/time

W = F*d

You have control over how fast you go up the stairs.

You also have control over how far up the stairs you go.

Therefore the answer is

  • time
  • distance

If you don't like distance as an answer, you can carry something up the stairs -- anything that increases F will do.

A small rock is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 17.0m/s from the edge of the roof of a 26.0m tall building. The rock do
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

A) v = 28.3 m/s

B) t =  4.64 s

Explanation:

A)

  • Assuming no other forces acting on the rock, since the accelerarion due to gravity close to the surface to the Earth can be taken as constant, we can use one of the kinematic equations in order to get first the maximum height (over the roof level) that the ball reaches:

        v_{f}^{2} - v_{o}^{2} = 2* g* \Delta h  (1)

  • Taking into account that at this point, the speed of the rock is just zero, this means vf=0 in (1), so replacing by the givens and solving for Δh, we get:

       \Delta h = \frac{-v_{o} ^{2}}{2*g} = \frac{-(17.0m/s)^{2} }{2*(-9.8m/s2)} = 14.8 m (2)

  • So, we can use now the same equation, taking into account that the initial speed is zero (when it starts falling from the maximum height) and that the total vertical displacement is the distance between the roof level and the ground (26.0 m) plus the maximum height that we have just found in (2) , 14.8m:
  • Δh = 26.0 m + 14. 8 m = 40.8 m (3)
  • Replacing now in (1), we can solve for vf, as follows:

       v_{f} =\sqrt{2*g*\Delta h} = \sqrt{2*9.8m/s2*40.8m} = 28.3 m/s (4)

B)

  • In order to find the total elapsed from when the rock is thrown until it hits the street, we can divide this time in two parts:
  • 1) Time elapsed from the the rock is thrown, until it reaches to its maximum height, when vf =0
  • 2) Time elapsed from this point until it hits the street, with vo=0.
  • For the first part, we can simply use the definition of acceleration (g in this case), making vf =0, as follows:

       v_{f} = v_{o} + a*\Delta t = v_{o} - g*\Delta t = 0 (5)

  • Replacing by the givens in (5) and solving for Δt, we get:

       \Delta t = \frac{v_{o}}{g} = \frac{17.0m/s}{9.8m/s2} = 1.74 s (6)

  • For the second part, since we know the total vertical displacement from (3), and that vo = 0 since it starts to fall, we can use the kinematic equation for displacement, as follows:

       \Delta h = \frac{1}{2} * g * t^{2}  (7)

  • Replacing by the givens and solving for t in (7), we get:

       t_{fall} =\sqrt{\frac{2*\Delta h}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*40.8m}{9.8m/s2} } = 2.9 s (8)

  • So, total time is just the sum of (6) and (8):
  • t = 2.9 s + 1.74 s = 4.64 s

Choose all of the true statements regarding the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current. Current is measured in am
AveGali [126]

-- <u><em>Current is measured in amps.</em></u>  (You can use any symbol you want to represent current, but the most common one is " I ", not "Δ".)

-- <u><em>The relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is mathematically defined by Ohm's Law. </em></u>

-- <u><em>Current is the flow of electrons through a circuit.</em></u>

-- (Ohm's Law is NOT mathematically represented by the equation V=I/R.)  <u><em>It should be V = I · R</em></u> .  

(When solving for Resistance in a circuit and both voltage and current are known values, the equation I =V*R is not true, and not the way to solve it.)  <u><em>If the resistance is what you're looking for, then the equation to use is  </em></u><u><em>R = V / I</em></u><u><em> .  </em></u>

<em>-- </em><u><em>If the voltage in a circuit is increased, the current will also increase.</em></u>

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

  9.877 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration can be computed from ...

  d = (1/2)at^2

  (1600 m) = (1/2)a(18 s)^2

  a = (1600/162) m/s^2 ≈ 9.877 m/s^2
