Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Given that a student runs up a flight of stairs which info is not needed to calculate the rate of the student is doing work against gravity A the height of the flight of stairs B the length of flight of stairs C the time taken to run up the stairs D the weight of the student

The rate of doing work is known as power.

Power = work done/time

Work done = energy = mgh

Since energy = mgh

Where mg = weight

And h = height

Time = time taken to run up the stairs.

Time, weight mg and height h will be needed while the Length of the flight is therefore not needed.

The correct answer is B.

Tim and Rick both can run at speed Vr and walk at speed Vw, with Vr > Vw.
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Δt =  \frac{2D}{Vw+Vr} - \frac{D}{2Vr} - \frac{D}{2Vw}

Explanation:

Hi there!

Using the equation of speed for the whole trip, we can obtain the time each one needed to cover the distance D.

The speed (v) is calculated by dividing the traveled distance (d) over the time needed to cover that distance (t):

v = d/t

Rick traveled half of the distance at Vr and the other half at Vw. Then, when v = Vr, the distance traveled was D/2 and the time is unknown, Δt1:

Vr = D/ (2 · Δt1)

For the other half of the trip the expression of velocity will be:

Vw = D/(2 · Δt2)

The total time traveled is the sum of both Δt:

Δt(total) = Δt1 + Δt2

Then, solving the first equation for Δt1:

Vr = D/ (2 · Δt1)

Δt1 = D/(2 · Vr)

In the same way for the second equation:

Δt2 = D/(2 · Vw)

Δt + Δt2 = D/(2 · Vr) + D/(2 · Vw)

Δt(total) = D/2 · (1/Vr + 1/Vw)

The time needed by Rick to complete the trip was:

Δt(total) = D/2 · (1/Vr + 1/Vw)

Now let´s calculate the time it took Tim to do the trip:

Tim walks half of the time, then his speed could be expressed as follows:

Vw = 2d1/Δt  Where d1 is the traveled distance.

Solving for d1:

Vw · Δt/2 = d1

He then ran half of the time:

Vr = 2d2/Δt

Solving for d2:

Vr · Δt/2 = d2

Since d1 + d2 = D, then:

Vw · Δt/2 +  Vr · Δt/2 = D

Solving for Δt:

Δt (Vw/2 + Vr/2) = D

Δt = D / (Vw/2 + Vr/2)

Δt = D/ ((Vw + Vr)/2)

Δt = 2D / (Vw + Vr)

The time needed by Tim to complete the trip was:

Δt = 2D / (Vw + Vr)

Let´s find the diference between the time done by Tim and the one done by Rick:

Δt(tim) - Δt(rick)

2D / (Vw + Vr) - (D/2 · (1/Vr + 1/Vw))

\frac{2D}{Vw+Vr} - \frac{D}{2Vr} - \frac{D}{2Vw} = Δt

Let´s check the result. If Vr = Vw:

Δt = 2D/2Vr - D/2Vr - D/2Vr

Δt = D/Vr - D/Vr = 0

This makes sense because if both move with the same velocity all the time both will do the trip in the same time.

The wavelength of light mainly affects our perception of
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

I would think the answer is color, if the wavelength is within the visible light spectrum. This could be answered in different ways but I'm pretty sure the answer you are looking for is hue/color.

Which of the two resistors dissipates the larger amount of power?
Aloiza [94]

The circuit shown has a battery and two resistors, with R1>R2. Which of the two resistors dissipates the larger amount of power? Explain

Rank in order, from largest to smallest, the three currents I1 TO I3. And explain why?

The two batteries are identical and the four resistors all ahve exactly the same resistance.

a) Compare change in V(ab), V(cd), and V(ef). Are they all the same? In not, rank them in decreasing order. Explain you reasoning

b) Rank in order, from largest to smallest, the five currents I1 to I5, and ezplain why
