Each year 500 runners run up the stairs to the 86th floor of the Empire State Building in New York City. There are 1576 steps and each step is 0.241 m high. In 2003, Australian Paul Crake (20-29 age group) set the overall record by reaching the 86th floor in 9:33. His mass was 70.0 kg. Question 2 HomeworkUnanswered What was Paul Crake's power output during this climb

Respuesta :

Answer:

The power is 465.44 W.

Explanation:

mass, m = 70 kg

number of steps,  n = 1576

height of each step, h = 0.241 m

time taken, t = 9.33 min= 9.33 x 60 s

The power is given by the rate of doing work.

W = n m g h

W = 1576 x 70 x 9.8 x 0.241

W = 260553.776 J

The power is given by

[tex]P = \frac{W}{t}\\\\P = \frac{260553.776}{9.33\times 60}\\\\P = 465.44 W[/tex] Â
