Answer:

You will do twice the work of climbing 1 stair.

Explanation:

To obtain the answer to the question, we shall determine the work done on each case. This is illustrated below:

Case 1 ( climbing 2 stairs):

Mass (m) = m

One stair = 4 m

Height (h) = 2 × 4 = 8 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Workdone 1 (Wd₁) =?

Wd₁ = mgh

Wd₁ = m × 10 × 8

Wd₁ = 80 × m

Case 2 (Climbing 1 stair)

Mass (m) = m

Height (h) = 4 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Workdone 2 (Wd₂) =?

Wd₂ = mgh

Wd₂ = m × 10 × 4

Wd₂ = 40 × m

Now comparing the Workdone in both case:

Workdone 1 (Wd₁) = 80 × m

Workdone 2 (Wd₂) = 40 × m

Wd₁ / Wd₂ = 80 × m / 40 × m

Wd₁ / Wd₂ = 2

Cross multiply

Wd₁ = 2 × Wd₂

Thus, we can see that the Workdone in climbing 2 stairs is twice the Workdone in climbing 1 stair.

Therefore, you will do twice the work of climbing 1 stair.

nordsb [41]
<span>Depth = 5.0 Ă— 10^2 m
 Density of sea water = 1.025 x 10^3
 Pd = Po + pgh
Atmospheric pressure is standard Patm = 1.01325 x 10^5 Pa
  Since the normal pressure is retained in the hull, no need to bother about Po Pd = pgh = 1.025 x 10^3 x 9.8 x 5.0 x 10^2 = 50.225 x 10^5
 So now Pd / Patm = 50.225 x 10^5 / 1.01325 x 10^5 = 49.56
 So it is 49.56 times larger.</span>

what happens when light travels from one medium to another with a different index of refraction at a zero degree angle of incide
zaharov [31]

Answer:

No Refraction takes places

Explanation:

When light travels from one medium to another at an angle of incidence 0 degree then no refraction takes place .

It is because according to Refraction law

                    n_{i}sini = n_{r}sinr

where n_{i} ,n_{r} are the refractive index of medium of incidence and medium of refraction .

When i = 0 , left side of the equation becomes 0 and thus r (angle of refraction) must be zero. So No refraction takes place

An what would be needed to change an objects state of motion
VladimirAG [237]

Inertia: tendency of an object to resist changes in its velocity. An object at rest has zero velocity - and (in the absence of an unbalanced force) will remain with a zero velocity. Such an object will not change its state of motion (i.e., velocity) unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

4. Using the bone density of 2.0 kg/m3, calculate the mass of an adult femur bone that has a volume of 0.00027 m3.
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Mass \ of \ an \ adult \ femur \ bone = 0.00054 \ kg}

Given:

Bone density = 2.0 kg/m³

Volume of bone (V) = 0.00027 m³

To Find:

Mass of an adult femur bone (m).

Explanation:

\sf \implies Density = \frac{Mass (m)}{Volume (V)} \\ \\ \sf \implies \frac{Mass}{Volume} = Density \\ \\ \sf \implies Mass = Density \times Volume \\ \\ \sf \implies Mass = 2.0 \ kg/ \cancel{m^{3}} \times 0.00027 \ \cancel{m^{3}} \\ \\ \sf \implies Mass = 0.00054 \ kg
