Answer:

407 steps

Explanation:

Based on the question,

P = mgh/t........... Equation 1

Where P stands for power, m is mass, g denotes gravity, h is height, and t represents time.

Rearranging the equation to solve for h, we have:

h = Pt/mg............. Equation 2

Providing values: P = 746 W, t = 1 minute = 60 seconds, m = 70 kg.

Given constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

By substituting into equation 2

h = 746(60)/(70×9.8)

h = 44760/686

h = 65.25 m

h = 6525 cm

Calculating number of steps: 6525/16

The resulting number of steps = 407 steps

If the coefficient of static friction between a table and a uniform massive rope is μs, what fraction of the rope can hang over
inna [987]
Here's the procedure explained: Assume F represents the portion of the rope that is extending over the table. In this scenario, the frictional force that holds the rope on the table can be calculated using the formula: Ff = u*(1-f)*m*g. Additionally, it is important to determine the gravitational force that attempts to pull the rope off the table, Fg, calculated through: Fg = f*m*g. You then need to set these two equations equal to each other and resolve for f: f*m*g = u*(1-f)*m*g leads to f = u*(1-f) = u - uf. Simplifying gives f + uf = u, which results in f = u/(1+u) representing the fraction of the rope. This will lead you to the final answer.

serg [1198]

Answer:

x₂=2×1

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, we can assume that the gravitational potential energy at the lowest point of compression is zero since the kinetic energy change is 0;

mgx-(kx)²/2 =0 where m refers to the object's mass, g indicates the acceleration due to gravity, k denotes spring constant, and x represents the spring's compression.

mgx=(kx)²/2

x=2mg/k----------------compression when the object is at rest

However, ΔK.E =-1/2mv²⇒kx²=mv² -----------where v symbolizes the object's velocity and K.E signifies kinetic energy

Thus, if kx²=mv² then

v=x *√(k/m) ----------------where v=0

<pDoubling v results in multiplying x *√(k/m) by 2, leading to x₂ being double x₁
