Answer:
The spiral staircase will require more work
Explanation:
This is because, work can be calculated as force (which is mass of the individual climbing the stairs in this case) multiplied by distance (or length) of the stairs. The only variable that changes in the work done while climbing any of the two (ladder or spiral staircase) is the distance and it is obvious the length of the spiral staircase will be longer; thus the spiral staircase will involve more work.

A runner is jogging in a straight line at a
steady vr= 8.5 km/hr. When the runner is
L=6.4 km from the finish line, a bird begins
flying straight from the runner to the finish
line at vý= 17 km/hr (2 times as fast as the
runner). When the bird reaches the finish
line, it turns around and flies directly back to
the runner
What cumulative distance does the bird
travel? Even though the bird is a dodo, as-
sume that it occupies only one point in space
(a "zero" length bird). travels in a straight
line, and that it can turn without loss of
Speed
Answer:
7.53 km
Explanation:
We at given;
Speed of runner; v_r = 8.5 km/hr
Speed of bird; v_y = 17 km/hr
L = 6.4 km
We know that; time = distance/speed.
We are told that the bird starts from 6.4 km from the start and that it flies back to meet the runner after it reaches the finish line. If the total distance back to the runner is x, it means bird distance is 6.4 + (6.4 - x) = 12.8 - x
Thus;
Time of bird(t_y) = (12.8 - x)/17
Thus,
Time of runner(t_r) = x/8.5 hr
To find x, we have to equate the times of the runner and the bird.
Thus;
x/8.5 = (12.8 - x)/17
Multiply both sides by 17 to get;
2x = 12.8 - x
2x + x = 12.8
3x = 12.8
x = 12.8/3
x = 4.27 km
Thus, cumulative distance traveled by bird is; 12.8 - 4.27 = 7.53 km

A submarine is built to dive to a depth of 90 m where the pressure in the water is about 1 MPa. The engineers want to build a window in the submarine, but the window can only take a force of 10 kN safely. What is the largest surface area window that can be used?
Answer:
The largest surface area window that can be used is [tex]A=0.01\ m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Pressure
The pressure is defined as force per unit area. The SI unit for pressure is the Pascal (Pa), defined as Newton per square meter.
If a force F acts on a surface area A, the pressure is calculated as:
[tex]\displaystyle P=\frac{F}{A}[/tex]
The pressure at a depth of 90 m is P=1 Mpa= 1,000,000 Pa and the submarine's window can only take a force of F=10 kN=10,000 N.
We need to calculate the largest surface area of the window. We can solve the equation for A:
[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{F}{P}[/tex]
Substituting:
[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{10,000}{1,000,000}[/tex]
[tex]A=0.01\ m^2[/tex]
The largest surface area window that can be used is [tex]\mathbf{A=0.01\ m^2}[/tex]
A sample contains 20 kg of radioactive material. The decay constant of the material is 0.179 per second. If the amount of time that has passed

Answer:
There are [tex]9.537\times 10^{-23}[/tex] kilograms of radioactive material after 300 seconds.
Explanation:
From Physics we know that radioactive materials decay at exponential rate, whose differential equation is:
[tex]\frac{dm}{dt} = -\lambda\cdot m[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]\frac{dm}{dt}[/tex] - Rate of change of the mass of the radioactive material, measured in kilograms per second.
[tex]m[/tex] - Current mass of the radioactive material, measured in kilograms.
[tex]\lambda[/tex] - Decay constant, measured in [tex]\frac{1}{s}[/tex].
The solution of the differential equation is:
[tex]m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\lambda\cdot t}[/tex] (2)
Where:
[tex]m_{o}[/tex] - Initial mass of the radioactive material, measured in kilograms.
[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.
If we know that [tex]m_{o} = 20\,kg[/tex], [tex]\lambda = 0.179\,\frac{1}{s}[/tex] and [tex]t = 300\,s[/tex], then the initial mass of the radioactive material is:
[tex]m(t) = (20\,kg)\cdot e^{-\left(0.179\,\frac{1}{s} \right)\cdot (300\,s)}[/tex]
[tex]m(t) \approx 9.537\times 10^{-23}\,kg[/tex]
There are [tex]9.537\times 10^{-23}[/tex] kilograms of radioactive material after 300 seconds.

A plane flies due north (90° from east) with a velocity of 100 km/h for 3 hours. During this time, a steady wind blows southeast at 30 km/h at an angle of 315° from due east. After 3 hours, where will the plane’s position be relative to its starting point?
*Please try to fill the data table.
Answer:
thank you
Explanation:
Split up the two given velocity vectors into horizontal and vertical components.
Plane:
p = (100 km/h) (cos(90°) i + sin(90°) j ) = (100 km/h) j
Its direction is given, 90° relative to east.
Traveling for 3 hours with this velocity results in a displacement of
p * (3 h) = (300 km/h) (3h) j = (900 km) j
meaning that this velocity contributes to a north-facing displacement of 900 km.
Wind:
w = (30 km/h) (cos(315°) i + sin(315°) j ) ≈ (21.2 km/h) i + (-21.2 km/h) j
Its direction is also given, 315° relative to east.
After 3 h, this velocity contributes to a displacement of
w * (3h) ≈ (63.6 km) i + (-63.6 km) j
meaning if the plane had no velocity of its own but somehow stayed in the air, the wind would have pushed it about 63.6 km south and 63.6 km east, which translates to a net displacement of
√((63.6 km)² + (-63.6 km)²) = 90 km
due southeast.
Putting everything together, your table displacement table should read:
. | wind | plane
velocity | 30 | 100 ... km/h
direction | 90° | 315° ... relative to east
x | 63.6 | 0 ... km
y | -63.6 | 900 ... km
The resultant vector is the sum of these, r = p + w :
r ≈ (21.2 km/h) i + (78.8 km/h) j
After 3 h, the resultant displacement is
r * (3h) ≈ (63.6 km) i + (236.4 km) j
with magnitude
√((63.6 km)² + (236.4 km)²) ≈ 244.8 km
and direction θ such that
tan(θ) ≈ (236.4 km) / (63.6 km)
θ ≈ arctan(3.714) ≈ 74.9°
So the resultant table should read
xnet | 63.6 km
ynet | 236.4 km
magnitude | 244.8 km
theta | 74.9° relative to east

A person with a weight of 120 lbs. is standing on a scale. What force is the
scale exerting on the person? *
O Olbs up
O 60 lbs up
O 120 lbs up
240 lbs up
Those 4 numbers are the answer choices plz help
Answer:
The answer is 120lbs
Explanation:
because the scale exerts enough force to equal out to 0 and since the person is putting 120lbs onto the scale it then pushes back enough force to keep them up
The upward force acting on the body is 534 N which is equal to 240 lbs in the upward direction, hence, option d is correct.
What is force?Force is an external agent acting on a body to change it from the state of motion or rest. There are various kind of forces namely, gravitational force, magnetic force, nuclear force etc.
Gravitational force is the force by which an object attracts other objects to its center of mass. Gravitational force depends on the mass of the object and the distance from the surface of earth.
The weight of the person is 120 lbs.
1 Kg = 2.2 lbs
120 lbs = 54.5 Kg.
The force acting on the body by their weight = mg = 54.5 Kg × 9. 8 m/s².
= 534 N.
Hence, 534 N is 240 lbs (534 /2.2 ) of force upward.

A diver runs horizontally off the end of a diving board with an initial speed of 1.95 m/s. If the diving board is 2.00 m above the water, what is the diver's speed just before she enters the water
Answer:
V = 6.56 m/s
Explanation:
in order to find the speed of the diver before she enters we need to find the vertical component of its final velocity by using 3rd equation of motion:
2gh = Vy² - V₀y²
where,
g = 9.8 m/s²
h = height = 2 m
Vy = Vertical Component of Final Velocity = ?
V₀y = Vertical Component of Initial Velocity = 0 m/s
Therefore,
2(9.8 m/s²)(2 m) = Vy² - (0 m/s)²
Vy = √39.2 m²/s²
Vy = 6.26 m/s
Assuming negligible air friction, the x-component of the final velocity will be the same as the initial velocity:
Vₓ = V₀ₓ = 1.95 m/s
Hence, the final velocity will be:
V = √(Vₓ² + Vy²)
V = √[(1.95 m/s)² + (6.26 m/s)²]
V = 6.56 m/s

Water boils at 212°F. Which temperature is an equivalent temperature?
[tex]\mathrm {Hey, there!}[/tex]
Let's solve your problem:
We will convert your number, 212°F, to Kelvin and Celsius.
212°F is equal to 100° Celsius.
Now, let's do the Kelvin convert.
To convert Celsius to Kelvin, we have to add 273.5 to the amount of Celsius.
100° + 273.5 = 373.5
We have all our conversions. Finally, let's set them out.
Fahrenheit: 212°F
Celsius: 100°C
Kelvin: 373.5°K

Answer:
7m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Velocity at the top = 1m/s
Velocity at the bottom = 36m/s
Time = 5s
Unknown:
Average acceleration = ?
Solution;
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. It is expressed as;
A = [tex]\frac{v -u}{t}[/tex]
v is the velocity at the top
u is the velocity at the bottom
t is the time taken
Now, insert the parameters and solve;
A = [tex]\frac{36 - 1}{5}[/tex] = 7m/s²
Given values:
Top velocity,
v = 1 m/sBottom velocity,
u = 36 m/sTime,
t = 5 sThe acceleration is:
→ [tex]A = \frac{v -u}{t}[/tex]
By putting the values,
[tex]= \frac{36-1}{5}[/tex]

Type A is constructive interference and Type B wave gives destructive interference. The constructive interference would be louder.
What is interfernece?Interference can be described as a natural phenomenon that occurs at every place and at every moment. Interference can be defined as the phenomenon in which two waves superpose to produce the resultant wave of the lower, higher, or same amplitude. Light waves are produced randomly by most of the sources.
The interference of light from the soap bubble which reflects colors when illuminated by a light source. The starting point of the wave produced may be a maximum or a minimum, and there is no way to predict which phase the wave will start.
Interference can either be constructive interference or destructive interference. Constructive interference occurs when the crest of one wave falls on the crest of another wave and the amplitude is maximum.
In destructive interference, when the crest of one wave falls on the trough of another wave and the amplitude is minimum. The phase and displacement of these waves are not the same.
