Two physics students, Ben and Bonnie, are in the weightlifting room. Bonnie lifts the 50 kg barbell over her head (approximately .60 m) 10 times in one minute; Ben lifts the 50 kg barbell the same distance over his head 10 times in 10 seconds. Which student does the most work? Which student delivers the most power? Explain your answers.

If an inclined plane is 5 m long and 2 m high, what is its mechanical advantage? a. 2.5 b. 3 c. 7 d. 10

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 740 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of theta= 26 with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is uk = 0.17. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. the block's initial mechanical energy is 9.472 j.b. if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance l in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.

The amount of heat required to change liquid water to vapor at its boiling temperature is 2256 kj/kg. the amount of heat required to change liquid mercury to its vapor state at its boiling temperature is 295 kj/kg. one kg of each substance is currently at its boiling point. how will the amount of thermal energy required to change each substance from a liquid to a gas differ?
