Can power be negative in physics? I am doing a lab in which I run down the stairs as quickly as possible. They are 5.4m tall and

my work is 5321.7 J. After calculating work, I got -5321.7 J. I am supposed to calculate my power used over 3 trials. The time for trial 1 was 4.69 and the seconds for trials 2 and 3 are 4.25. After calculating my power I got -1134.69 W and -1252.16 W. I am not sure if I got my power right. Is my power really negative or is my power positive?

Answer:

<h3>0.445</h3>

Explanation:

In friction, the coefficient of friction formula is expressed as;

\mu = \frac{F_f}{R}

Ff is the frictional force = Wsinθ

R is the reaction = Wcosθ

Substitute inti the equation;

\mu = \frac{Wsin \theta}{W cos\theta} \\\mu = \frac{sin \theta}{cos\theta} \\\mu = tan \theta

Given

θ = 24°

\mu = tan 24^0\\\mu = 0.445\\

Hence the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp is 0.445

Based upon the information you have learned throughout this module on blood spatter analysis, do you feel that analyzing blood s
kompoz [17]

Answer:

I do not think that it is the most reliable way to gain information since it is very hard to do and can be easily messed up. No, I don't think you can charge someone on only evidence from blood spatter, but if there was additional evidence I think that this would definitely help with the case but not on its own, since it doesn’t give you physical evidence about the suspect.
