Mary takes 6.0 seconds to run up a flight of stairs that is 102 meters long. If Mary's weight is 87 newtons, what power has Mary
fredd [130]

Answer: 1479watts

Explanation:

Power is defined as the energy expended or work done in a specific time.

Mathematically,

Power = Workdone/time taken

Since work done is force × distance

Power = force × distance/time

Force = Mary's weight = 87N

Distance = height of the flight = 102meters

Time = 6.0seconds

Substituting in the formula we have;

Power = 87 × 102/6

Power = 1,479watts

Note that the time must be in seconds before usage. If its given in minutes, you will have to convert to seconds

The equation below is for potassium oxide.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: The ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, and remains conserved. The mass of products must be same as that of the reactants.

Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the equation so as to keep the mass same and thus balanced chemical equations are written.

K exists as atoms and oxygen exist as molecule which consists of 2 atoms. The ratio of number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same and thus the ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2.
