5 0

Answer:

160 watts.

Explanation:

Remark

Power = Work / Time

Work = F * d

Note: Since he is running up stairs he is doing work against gravity.

Givens

m = 50000 g kg / 1000 grms
m = 50000 / 1000 = 50 kg
h = 4 m
time = 12.5 seconds
g = 10 m/s^2

Formula

P = W * d/t
W = m*g *d / t

Solution

P = 50kg * 10 m/s^2 * 4 m / 12.5
P = 160 watts.

Suppose two children push horizontally, but in exactly opposite directions, on a third child in a wagon. The first child exerts

tangare [24]

Answer:

Value of acceleration in each case is $7.52\ m/s^2 \ and \ 7.14\ m/s^2.$

Explanation:

According to newton's law :

$F_{net} = ma$ ...equation 1.

In the given case, $F_{net}=$ Force by both the children - Friction force .

$F_{net} = (75+95)-12=158\ N.$

Putting value of F in equation 1.

$a=\dfrac{F_{net}}{m}=\dfrac{158}{21}=7.52\ m/s^2.$

Now, if friction force = 20 N.

Therefore, $F_{net}=(75+95)-20=150\ N.$

Putting value of F and a in equation 1.

$a=\dfrac{F_{net}}{m}=\dfrac{150}{21}=7.14\ m/s^2.$

Hence , this is the required solution.

If the same amount of heat is supplied to two different materials that have same mass. Why don't they have equal increasing of t

nikdorinn [45]

Because both materials hold in the heat differently. Therefore, their temperature would not rise at the same rate.
