How does your power output in climbing the stairs compared to the power output of a 100 watt

Physics

Answer:

1) Assuming an adult person has an average mass of m=80 kg, and assuming it takes about 30 seconds to climb 5 meters of stairs, the energy used by the person is

So the power output is

And since the estimate we made is very rough, we can say that the power output of the person is comparable to the power output of the light bulb of 100 W.

2) Based on the results we found in the previous part of the exercise, since the power output of the person is comparable to the power output of 1 light bulb of 100 W, we can say that the person could have kept burning only one 100-W light bulb during the climb.

A block of mass 1.5 hangs at the of end of a weight cord suspended from the ceiling.what is the tension in the cord, and with wh
Len [333]

The tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.

<h3>What is the tension in the cord?</h3>

The tension in the cord is calculated as follows;

T = ma + mg

where;

  • a is the acceleration of the block
  • g is acceleration due to gravity
  • m is mass of the block

T = m(a + g)

T = 1.5(a + 9.8)

T = 1.5a + 14.7

Thus, the tension in the cord is (1.5a + 14.7) N.

If the block is at rest, the tension is 14.7 N.

<h3>Force of the force</h3>

The force with which the cord pulls is equal to the tension in the cord

F = T = m(a + g)

F = (1.5a + 14.7) N

If the block is stationary, a = 0, the tension and force of pull of the cord = 14.7 N.

Thus, the tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is equal and opposite reaction.

While space walking, when the astronaut gets detached from the space ship, she floats in space holding a wrench. In order to get back to the spaceship, she should throw the wrench in the opposite direction of the spaceship. This action would  cause a reaction on her own body and she would be pushed away from the wrench and towards the spaceship. Thus, she can return back to the spaceship in this way.

How fast is a ball rolling if it contains 98 j of kinetic energy and has a mass of 4kg
zysi [14]

Answer:

the ball is rolling 7m/s

Explanation:

Formula for kinetic energy: 1/2mv²

K = 1/2mv²

98 = 1/2(4)v²

98 = 2v²

49 = v²

√49 = v

7 = v
