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?

NARA [144]

Answer:

condensing

Explanation:

Condensing is the word used to indicate the change of state of a substance from vapor to liquid, as in this case. During condensation, the substance releases thermal energy to the environment, therefore the kinetic energy of the molecules in the vapor decreases until they become closer to each other and they start to be affected by the intermolecular forces and so the substance becomes a liquid.
