A 120-lb student races up stairs with a vertical height of 5.4 m in 6.5 s to get to a class on the second floor. How much power in watts does the student expend in doing work against gravity
_______w
mass = 120 lb
= 120*0.4536 Kg
= 54.43 Kg
Now use:
Energy = m*g*h
= 54.43 Kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 5.4 m
= 2880 J
use:
power = energy / time
= 2880 J / 6.5 s
= 443 w
Answer: 4.4*10^2 w

6.5 A 75.0-kg painter climbs a ladder that is 2.75 m long leaning against a vertical wall. The ladder makes a 30.0 degree angle with the wall. (a) How much work does gravity do on the painter? (b) Does the answer to part (a) depend on whether the painter climbs at constant speed or accelerates up the ladder?
