Answer:

The escalator does more work and the elevator has a greater power output.

Explanation:

The escalator does more work on the person because it is carrying them up. It also gives the person a chance to walk up the escalator making it a little more challenging than using just an elevator. The elevator has a greater power output because it can transport a person from one floor to another in just 10 seconds where as the escalator can do it in 15.

Hope this helps!

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

BC =980nm

Explanation:

Given wavelength =490nm

m=2

Required to find (OB - OC) = BC (more distant slit - nearest slit ) = dsin theta

We have dsin theta = m*wavelength

or BC = m* wavelength = 2*490nm

= 980nm = 98.000A

WILL GIVE BRAINLY!! PLEASE HELPP
LekaFEV [45]

The purpose of the machine is to leverage its mechanical advantage such that the force it outputs to move the heavy object is greater than the force required for you to input.

But there's no such thing as a free lunch! When you apply the conservation of energy, the work the machine does on the object will always be equal to (in an ideal machine) or less than the work you input to the machine.

This means that you will apply a lesser force for a longer distance so that the machine can supply a greater force on the object to push it a smaller distance. That is the trade-off of using the machine: it enables you to use a smaller force but at the cost of having to apply that smaller force for a greater distance.

The answer is: The work input required will equal the work output.

How many joules of electrical energy is transferred per second by 6V 0.5 A lamp?
Degger [83]

When you ask for "joules per second", you're asking for "watts".
The rate of energy "transfer" is 'power'.  In this case, the light bulb
transfers energy out of the electrical circuit and into the space
around it, in the form of light and heat radiation.

Electrical power = (voltage) x (current) =

                              (6 volts) x (0.5 ampere) =

                                          3 watts  =  3 joules per second.
