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

Physics
1 answer:
Nina [5.8K]2 years ago
8 0

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 pulley has a mechanical advantage of 1.
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

There is no mechanical advantage

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage is possible only when the force needed to lift a load is lesser than the weight of the load.

For example, is we have a mechanical advantage of 2, the force needed to lift will be 1/2 of the weight of the load, and if we have a mechanical advantage of 4, the force needed will be 1/4 of the weight of the load.

In the attached image there are clear examples of mechanical advantage with pulleys.

the half-life of iodine-131 is 8.1 days. how much time had passed if i only have one-fourth of the original sample?​
morpeh [17]

Answer:

16.2 days

Explanation:

Find the number of halflives:

1/2   *  1/2 =  1/4     so <u>two</u>   halflives have passed

   2 * 8.1 days = 16.2 days

A 7.0kg skydiver is descending with a constant velocity
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The air resistance on the skydiver is 68.6 N

Explanation:

When the skydiver is falling down, there are two forces acting on him:

- The force of gravity, of magnitude mg, in the downward direction (where m is the mass of the skydiver and g is the acceleration due to gravity)

- The air resistance, R, in the upward direction

So the net force on the skydiver is:

F=mg-R

where

m = 7.0 kg is the mass

g=9.8 m/s^2

According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on a body is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration (a):

F=ma

In this problem, however, the skydiver is moving with constant velocity, so his acceleration is zero:

a=0

Therefore the net force is zero:

F=0

And so, we have:

mg-R=0

And so we can find the magnitude of the air resistance, which is equal to the force of gravity:

R=mg=(7.0)(9.8)=68.6 N
