Astudent weighing 200n climbs a flight of stairs 7.0m high in 8s. what power is required to perform this task?

Power required, P = 175 watts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of a student, F = mg = 200 N

The student climbs a flight of stairs of height, h = 7 m

Time taken, t = 8 s

We have to find the power required to perform this task. Work done per unit time is called the power required. Mathematically, it is given by :

W = work done

t = time taken

P = 175 watts

Hence, the power required to complete this task is 175 watts.

initial speed when it is dropped is 150 ft/s

now at the same moment the acceleration due to gravity is perpendicular to its velocity

so as we know that

now we have centripetal acceleration a = 32 ft/s^2 as its perpendicular to velocity

while tangential acceleration at the same moment will be zero

so

now radius of curvature is given as

so the radius of curvature just after it is dropped is 703.125 ft
