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

Suppose that Lisa walks her dog around the block for a little exercise. The block is 1 mile around. If she walks around the bloc
natita [175]
Displacement only measure how far between the starting and ending point. In this case, Lisa walks around the block as a circle so the starting point is the same as the ending point. Thus, displacement is 0mile.
On the other hand, distance measures exactly how far she walks. In this case, the distance is 1 mile, same as the perimeter of the block.

According to Dalton’s atomic theory
NARA [144]
Dalton's atomic theory was the first complete attempt to describe all matter in terms of atoms and their properties. ... The first part of his theory states that all matter is made of atoms, which are indivisible. The second part of the theory says all atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties.

ikadub [295]
The first law of thermodynamics states the conservation of energy and heat where the total energy in an isolated system may be transformed into another, but never created or destroyed. If 286 J of energy was released to the room, then also 286 J of energy was also removed from food in that refrigerator assuming it is an isolated system.   :)

An 800 N man climbs 5 m up a ladder. How much gravitational potential energy does he gain?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

4000J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of the man  = 800N

Height of ladder  = 5m

Unknown:

Gravitational potential energy gained  = ?

Solution:

The gravitational potential energy is due to the position of a body.

 Gravitational potential energy = weight x height

Now insert the parameters;

 Gravitational potential energy  = 800 x 5  = 4000J
